DESCRIPTION :
HERE WE HAVE FOR sale THIS VERY IMPRESSIVE & BEAUTIFULLY SHAPED GEORGIAN OLD SHEFFIELD \'FUSED\' PLATE COFFEE POT.
A VERY DESIRABLE COFFEE POT, FROM THE LATE 18TH CENTURY PRODUCTION OF SHEFFIELD PLATE. AROUND 1790.
IT IS A LATE PIECE FROM THE FIRST PERIOD, BUT CLEARY ITS SHAPE & STYLE SHOW THAT IT IS AN 18TH CENTURY, RATHER THAN A 19TH CENTURY PIECE.
IT WAS MADE FROM SINGLE SIDED FUSED PLATE. WITH THE INTERIOR HAVING A VERY CLEAN \'TINNED\' FINISH.
OF A TALL, VERY ELEGANT SHAPE & SIZE. THIS IS A SIMPLY WONDERFUL PIECE TO HAVE UPON DISPLAY.
ITS CONDITION IS SUPERB & ITS FORM & STYLE ARE FABULOUS.
THERE IS A STEPPED, CIRCULAR \'FOOT\' AT THE BASE.
ABOVE THIS IS FITTED THE TAPERING, \'CONICAL\' BODY.
COMPLETELY PLAIN & UN-ORNAMENTED, APART FROM FINE LITTLE \'REEDED\' BANDS RUNNING AROUND THE SHOULDER.
THE FABULOUS CIRCULAR \'DOMED\' LID SITS UPON THE TOP PERFECTLY. IT IS FITTED WITH A FINE WIRE FINISHING STRIP & FUSED PLATE FINIAL.
THIS OPENS & CLOSES AS REQUIRED, WITH THE AID OF A FULLY WORKING HINGE.
TO THE BACK OF THE POT IS THE LARGE, SCROLL SHAPED FRUITWOOD HANDLE. THIS IS JOINED TO THE BODY VIA 2 \'FUSED PLATE\' APPETURES. WITH THE LOWER ONE BEING IN A \'RATS TAIL\' STYLE. SUPERB.
AT THE FRONT IS THE FABULOUS SPOUT, FITTED HALF WAY UP THE SIDE OF THE POT.
AGAIN THIS IS A TYPICAL FEATURE ON MUCH EARLIER PIECES.
THE SPOUT IS VERY CLEAN & SMOOTH, IN FINE CONDITION TOO. THIS PIECE POURS BEAUTIFULLY AS REQUIRED & HAS NO LEAKS OF ANY KIND AT ALL.
DESPITE ITS GREAT AGE OF OVER 200 YEARS, IT IS A PIECE IN FABULOUS CONDITION INDEED.
THIS WOULD BE A FANTASTIC ADDITION FOR ANY FINE COLLECTION & WOULD LOOK MOST WONDERFUL UPON DISPLAY.
OR INDEED TO ENJOY & STILL USE, PERHAPS TO DISPENSE RED WINE AT THE TABLE. MAGNIFICENT.
CONDITION :
THIS IS A WONDERFUL, 18TH CENTURY GEORGIAN PIECE, IN LOVELY CONDITION TOO.
NO NOTICEABLE WEAR OR ANY DAMAGE AT ALL.
THERE IS SOME \'THINNING\' TO THE SILVER SURFACE, WITH SMALL AMOUNTS OF COPPER STARTING TO \'BLEED\' THROUGH.
THE LID SITS PERFECTLY, THE HANDLE IS STRONG & FIRMLY ATTACHED & THE SPOUT IS IN FINE ORDER.
THERE HAS BEEN A \'HISTORIC\' SOLDER REPAIR TO TO THE \'BOOK\' HINGE. BUT HAS BEEN DONE VERY WELL & HAS NOT AFFECTED THE \'SEATING\' OF THE LID AT ALL.
THE INSIDE IS VERY CLEAN.
THERE ARE NO LEAKS & IT POURS BEAUTIFULLY.
AS I HOPE YOU WILL SEE FROM THE PHOTO\'S, THIS IS A VERY FINE, ANTIQUE PIECE.
