Early 20th Century French chaufferettes in punched and embossed metal.
With a separate metal handled tray inside, hot coals would have been placed in here to keep travellers' feet warm on long, cold journeys.
These would make excellent shoe polish boxes or night light containers for today.
French, bought at a brocante.
