This early electric stove burner was likely produced in the early to mid-20th century. Used as a single-burner cooking appliance, common in homes before modern stovetops became standard. Functioned by passing an electric current through the coiled resistive wires, generating heat for cooking. The separate metal hot plate would distribute heat evenly, preventing direct contact with open elements.A round electric stove burner with an open metal framework revealing coiled heating elements. The burner consists of a metal base with radial supports, where spring-loaded resistive heating wires are arranged in a circular pattern. A flat metal hot plate is seen separately, which would be placed on top for even heat distribution when cooking.
