We've never had an authentic plague pan in the forty years we've been in business. This early 19th. century, two handled device was created originally for the usage in sick rooms. People thought impure air caused the disease and could be cleansed by smoke and heat. The holes in the plague pan allowed the coals and embers to breath.
