The brazier could sit in the open in a large room; often it was incorporated into furniture. Many cultures developed their own variants of a low table, with a heat source underneath and blankets to capture the warmth: the ''[[kotatsu]]'' in Japan, the ''[[korsi]]'' in Iran, the ''sandali'' in Afghanistan,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.icrc.org/eng/resources/documents/feature/2009/afghanistan-feature-230109.htm |title=Afghanistan: Sandali stoves, a blessing and a curse |author=Jessica Barry |date=23 January 2009 |publisher=[[International Committee of the Red Cross|ICRC]] |access-date=3 May 2016}}</ref> and the [[foot stove]] in northern Europe. In Spain the ''[[Brasero (heater)|brasero]]'' continued to be one of the main means of heating until the early 20th century; [[Gerald Brenan]] described in his memoir ''[[South from Granada]]'' its widespread habit in the 1920s of placing dying embers of a brazier beneath a cloth-covered table to keep the legs and feet of the family warm on winter evenings.<ref>{{cite book |author= Brenan, Gerald |author-link= Gerald Brenan |year= 1957 |title= [[South from Granada (book)|South from Granada]] |publisher= Hamish Hamilton |isbn= 9780241890028 }}</ref>
