An Early Victorian Copper Samovar / Urn
A typical example of a samovar (a tea urn), this would be filled with hot tea and used for dispensing directly into cups from a side buffet or breakfast table in a dining room. The inside of the spout has a mesh/filter to stop any tea leaves coming through. These would also be used as a movable object at events such as garden parties, fetes etc.
This is a smart copper samovar with a brass and porcelain tap and 2 brass handles
Condition is good
