Three-legged stove with hollow arched open-cut wall. The round stove rests on three legs and has two handles with hinged handles. The cast legs have the shape of a narrowing volute with beveled corners, made up of a sphere and a hollow part, both with deepened roughened fields, and decorated with acantus leaves, the upper of which curls over the profiled lower edge of the brazier wall. From this edge cast, symmetrical, openwork decorations between the legs depend on bandwork with leaf vines and in the middle a fan motif. These decorations are connected by ties behind the legs. The flat bottom


Three-legged stove with hollow arched open-cut wall. The round stove rests on three legs and has two handles with hinged handles. The cast legs have the shape of a narrowing volute with beveled corners, made up of a sphere and a hollow part, both with deepened roughened fields, and decorated with acantus leaves, the upper of which curls over the profiled lower edge of the brazier wall. From this edge cast, symmetrical, openwork decorations between the legs depend on bandwork with leaf vines and in the middle a fan motif. These decorations are connected by ties behind the legs. The flat bottom is enclosed in the bottom edge, it has a large opening in the middle for the burner that is currently missing. The concave wall has a straight upper part and is sawn open with alternating two abstract symmetrical patterns made up of volutes, fields of grille and other elements, both of which occur three times. The upper part has a border of diamonds and ovals between which dots. A profiled edge is superimposed on top of which the three cast shell-shaped supports for a boiler are attached. The S-shaped bent ears and the handles made of C and S-volutes are decorated with curling lips. Ears and handles are cast. (Catalog Amsterdam Gold and Silver, cat.
