I see these around now and then and have a rough idea of what they are. Apparently it goes on a stove top. It could be used for baking for those who had no oven or could just be for warming pies or some such.
Hard to say how old it is. The style looks pre 1930 to me although I am not even close to solid on that. 1930s look more art deco and 1950s more space age.
Now that is really neat!! I've never seen nor heard of one of these until now.
Thank you very much Scott. I am still not quite sure what it is called.
Thank you very much CindB. That sounds like a lot of work.
Thank you

Thank you very much Celiene. It does indeed appear to be a camp oven. Haven't found mine yet but others like it are from the 1920s.
I never knew such a thing existed. Very interesting. I think you are on the right track with 20s to 30s.
Thank you very much elanski. It's hard to find information on this one.
Thank you
