portable stove
Hornillo - Horno manual de barro refractario, o de metal, que se emplea en laboratorios, cocinas y usos industriales para calentar, fundir, cocer o tostar. Enciclopedia del Idioma - Martin Alonso - Vol. D-M
So: a portable clay or metal heating device that is stoked manually; for example, the somewhat popular aromatherapy devices in which an aromatic oil is put in a container or dish, etc. on top of a porcelain, clay, etc., device that contains a lit candle or other type of heating means, would be a type of "hornillo"

Note from asker:
| Heather, I looked this up in the dictionary too, I'm just doubting the existence of "portable stoves" in 1827. |
