This is a lovely pair of antique English Brass Victorian Spill Vases in the shape of fancy button up ladies shoes. The fronts are decorative; the reverses functional, having cylindrical tinder holder vases with fluted tops and easel legs in cast metal. These spill vases were used as tinder holders, or held pieces of rope or old rags, kept near the fireplace so that fires and candles could be lit with ease. Simply light one end of the spill, and carry it over to the candle to light it! This pair is in good condition except for a bit of tarnish, and wear from old age. The date is circa 1880. Each item measures (in inches): 6.6 tall X 6.7 wide X 1.7 deep; the weight of the pair is 1 Lb, 4 Oz. Shipping and Insurance USPS Priority Mail within the U.S. is $15.00. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
