Title
Modern Hand Warmer
Description
English: White metal glove warmer fragment. A lightweight hemispherical bowl with a pair of parallel oval section prongs projecting from its side [both broken], and with a round hollow in its base. The bowl retains fibrous charred material with a round hollow in its centre, probably a non-combustible material such as asbestos or impregnated fibre. A billet of smouldering charcoal would be placed in the hollow and the halves of a spherical container closed round it, to be kept in a pocket or a work glove. The warmer could retain heat for several hours, and would assist a worker or sportsman performing fiddly manual tasks in wintry weather. The lightweight material must indicate a recent date. Suggested date: Modern, 1950-2000.

Length: 66.7mm, Diameter: 29.7mm, Thickness (wall of bowl): 0.8mm, Weight: 10.67gms
