This brass caddy was built to travel, glass panels on every side, a carrying handle overhead, and a cluster of small brass cups that lift free or hook on top for toppings, garnishes, or sweets. The lower compartment once held warming coals for food on the move. Today it reads like a ready-made s'mores station or party caddy, something to carry out to the fire pit or set up on a buffet with the fixings on display behind glass. The divided tray inside lifts free of the case entirely.

The brass carries its original, uncleaned surface, with the mottled tarnish and oxidation you'd expect from age and handling rather than active care. The top shows scattered light scratches from years of use. The pierced cutouts on the door panels are open work, not glazed or backed, and read clearly in the photographs. The glass panels are intact. The divided tray insert lifts free and is included, along with the three brass accessories. Please review all photographs closely, as they form part of this description.

Important Info About Antique & Vintage

Every antique and vintage item we carry has lived a life before arriving in your home. These are not factory-made products. They are objects with history, character, and the marks of time.

Age-appropriate wear, patina, minor imperfections, and signs of previous use or repair are inherent to antique and vintage items and are not considered defects. These characteristics are part of what makes each piece unique and are often what give it its beauty and value.

We describe the condition of each piece as accurately as possible in the listing. If you have specific questions about a piece before purchasing, please reach out. We are always happy to provide additional photos or details.

Colors may appear slightly different on screen due to monitor settings and photography lighting. We do our best to represent each item accurately.

Descriptions, dates, attributions, materials, and measurements are provided in good faith and reflect our best assessment based on research, physical examination, and the information available to us. Antique and vintage pieces often carry incomplete or unverifiable histories. Where a detail is an assessment rather than a confirmed fact, it is identified as such. Measurements are approximate. All items are sold as-is, with the photographs and condition report governing.
