Here is an item that you can find relatively easily at thrift stores and garage sales. Vintage aluminum cake carriers. These sell for around $25 on eBay and Etsy. These will come in brand names including Regal, Kromex, West Bend, and Mirro. The West Bend made a variation in pink, that actually looks like copper. Most come with a heavy glass plate. Of course, the better the condition, the higher the price you will receive. Here are a few completed listings:
