Handkerchief Burning Globe. European, ca. 1870. Spherical brass vase on spun base with lid, its entirety resting on a metal base with faux marble finish. Borrowed handkerchiefs placed in the vase are set ablaze, and the lid is clamped on, yet when the vessel is reopened, the fabric is entirely unharmed. Height 16?. An unusual and early example of this classic piece of magic apparatus.
