Antique primitive Foot Bed Warmer 

Antique primitive foot bed warmers,  used to heat beds before the advent of central heating typically consisted of a metal container (often copper or brass) or a soapstone box, sometimes encased in wood, that held hot embers or water. These warmers were used to heat beds before occupants retired for the night, providing a welcome warmth in cold homes.
