This solid silver kettle has a plain paneled swan necked spout with an impressive scalloped shaped socket accented with a paralleling border. This exceptional kettle detaches from the original hallmarked cast sterling silver Stand, supported by four impressive cast scrolling legs accented with further applied leaf ornamentation. The upper portion of the stand is encircled with impressive cast scrolling leaf ornamentation with a central floral design. The stand incorporates a plain scrolling frame which retains the original spirit burner, reflecting the identical paneled form to the body and cover. The silver spirit kettle Stand is fitted with the original chains and security pegs. This impressive example of antique teaware was crafted by the collectable and renowned London silversmiths Edward, Edward Junior, John & William Barnard. Condition This antique spirit kettle on Stand is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional presentation condition.
