brazier

In one corner of the turbine hall, under a gaping hole in the roof, workers warm their hands over a makeshift brazier.

Gathered on a patio on a recent afternoon, women in colorful, handcrafted blouses chatted as they heated tortillas on braziers.

In front of him a pot of strong coffee warmed amid the embers of a coal brazier.

They lay in the hallways and dining room of the railway hotel - converted into a temporary camp for the displaced - and they huddled around braziers in the cold at the front of the building.

When night falls, and the power fails, it is enveloped in an eerie dark, punctuated by street-side braziers.
