5pc S. Sternau Copper Chafing Dish Set - Pat. Jan 12 1892

Antique S. Sternau & Co. copper chafing dish set, a charming 5-piece grouping dating to the late 19th–early 20th century. The main dish features a domed lid, turned wood handle, and integrated spirit burner, all supported by an elegant tripod stand. The rim is stamped “Pat. Jan. 12, 1892,” and the underside bears the Sternau New York maker’s mark, tying it to one of Brooklyn’s notable makers of fine copper household wares.

A cohesive and visually striking collection for copperware enthusiasts or period décor.
