Samovar

The samovar was an important appliance in Eastern European and Russian households. Sizes and designs varied, from "40-pail" ones of 400 litres (110 US gal) to 1 litre (0.26 US gal) size, from cylindrical to spherical, from plain iron to polished brass to gilt. Early examples like this one were traditionally heated with coal or charcoal, examples made by the 1920's began to use electric elements to heat the water.

Values for them depend on size quality of construction and size, examples like this one often sell for less than $200.00 at auction.
