Kettle
During the early part of the Victorian period, food was
cooked on a fire in an open hearth. The open fire was central to
cooking throughout the nineteenth century, and it prevailed in many
rural homes well into the twentieth century.
This cast iron kettle with a three pint capacity would have been
heated by an open fire.
