Notes
A stove consists of an upper chamber or fire chamber, a grate, and a lower chamber or ashtray. The edge of the upper chamber is vertical, with a resting place or protrusion inside which other vessels can be packed. The stove also has a round nozzle and a cylindrical body with a high body, openings to provide air for the fire, and two vertical handles in the shape of a ribbon surmounted by a conical appendage. The grill is convex with circular openings that provide communication between the upper chamber and the incinerator, which takes a semi-cylindrical shape. The stove has an oval opening and a flat base. It is decorated with a nail-shaped cord in the body area, and three parallel incised and wavy lines. With white paint on a reddish ground, he draws overlapping vertical and horizontal wavy lines. The piece also shows many traces of fire, dating back to its use as a small oven or as a portable stove that is useful for cooking or heating a place. Restored piece.
