Fireside charm, shrunk down for your countertops. This vintage solid brass sugar hod—styled after a classic European helmet-shaped coal scuttle—is the ultimate multi-use accent piece. It features intricate, ornate cast lion head mounts securing a moving top bail handle, plus a fixed rear tilt handle complete with a charming blue and white Delft-style porcelain ceramic grip.
It is aged to absolute perfection with a rich, unpolished warm gold patina. Use it as a stylish vessel to stash your tea bags (as pictured!), a moody desk organizer, or a unique catchall for trinkets on an entryway table.
