Description

This is a wonderful old Sheffield silver/silver overlay teapot that I found at a little rural auction many years ago in north Arkansas. I can't remembe what my winning bid was, but it wasn't much. It is 8 3/4" high, and 7 1/2" wide from its handle to its' spout. It looks grecian in design to me; I've searched online for its' origin, but haven't located anything like it. It must be a rather rare teapot, I'd guess. The top and base are silver overlay with brass underneath; the rest is silver. I've posted two pictures of it taken on my deck.
