Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 19TH CENTURY:
Segmented timber staves with shrinkage at the joints: decades of natural movement.
Heavily crazed finish across the base: aged resin varnish drying over time.
Beaten brass liner with patinated base: original metalwork made for hot coals.
Turned ebonised bands and ball feet: standard Dutch brazier construction.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This early 19th-century Dutch teestoof bucket originates from the traditional style of the period and takes the form of a small brazier for holding charcoal and a tea-kettle. Constructed from fruitwood and ebonised wood with a warm brown finish, the piece incorporates alternating wood staves, ebonised ring bands, a turned central pedestal, and ball feet, alongside a removable brass liner with a swing handle. Visible details include horizontal reeding around the tapering body, dark ebonised mouldings, and a flared circular rim. The measurements are 45 cm high, 36 cm wide, and 36 cm deep. In a modern interior, this item functions as a decorative accessory placed by a fireplace hearth or styled within a gentleman's library. The vessel serves to hold items such as dried florals or kindling, or stands alone as a sculptural display piece highlighting period craftsmanship and mixed timber tones.

FAQs

A teestoof is a traditional Dutch heating vessel or bucket originally designed to hold glowing coals or peat to maintain the temperature of tea kettles during the 18th and 19th centuries.

These items were typically constructed from staves of mahogany, walnut, or fruitwood, secured with ebonised wooden or metal hoops, and fitted with a removable brass liner and metal swing handle.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-turned wooden components, natural wood shrinkage between the staves, hand-hammered or folded brass liners, and genuine patination on the metal hardware.

Modern decorators frequently repurpose a teestoof as an indoor plant holder, a container for hearthside logs, or an accent piece on a sideboard or beside a fireplace.

Dust the wooden exterior with a dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally to protect the timber, while cleaning the removable brass liner separately with a specialist metal cleaner.
