Product description
Antique 19th Century English William IV solid silver samovar / hot water kettle. This samovar is heavily worked and highly decorative. The compressed bell-shaped lid has a floral and C-scroll border and is mounted with a large cast eagle finial with partially spread wings. The lid sits firmly over a spherical body divided into elaborately chased cartouches depicting hunting scenes, including stags, hounds, and birds set among dense foliage.
On either side are acanthus-capped double scroll handles, cast and symmetrical in form. The spigot is set centrally to the front, with an ornate mount and a wooden handle. The body rises from a knopped socle, which leads to a lobed base decorated in a similar manner to the main body, with further chased naturalistic panels. The samovar stands on four acanthus scrolled feet. The interior retains its original hot iron holder.
Hallmarked English solid silver (925 standard), London, year 1837 (B), Maker's mark SC (Sebastian Crespell II).
