Description

Rare antique early 20th century small gas radiator,c1920. This looks to be a fully functioning piece with gas pipe and valve attached and a row of burners but given its small size I would think this is an advertising/salesman's demonstration piece. The item is extremely well made with very decorative pierced cast iron metalwork topped with brass balls. The internal burner shelf has a ceramic coating and it stands on raised legs. It is marked to the base and back 'British made' and several registration numbers - 365455 number 0.19 and 692754. It is also stamped Radiator Burner and what appears to be a makers name but because of the position it is difficult to read. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you would like to view the item or have any questions.

Price includes FREE UK delivery, please contact me regarding international shipping.

Suze: 34cm wide x 30cm tall x 13cm deep ,weight 4.2kg.

Date of Manufacture

Curious Antiques has dated this Antique Gas Radiator to the 1920s.

FAQs

Salesman samples were miniature or scaled-down versions of larger products, such as stoves and radiators, used by travelling salesmen in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to demonstrate products to prospective buyers.

These items were predominantly constructed from durable cast iron, often featuring brass or copper fittings, and sometimes incorporating enamel interior panels for heat reflection.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-accurate casting techniques, genuine age-related wear to the metal and enamel, and functional mechanical components scaled down with precise detail.

These objects make striking focal points on mantelpieces, bookshelves, or sideboards, adding textural contrast and historical character to industrial or eclectic spaces.

Maintain cast iron by dusting with a dry cloth and occasionally applying a light coat of neutral wax or oil to prevent rust, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that can damage the patina.
