Silver Teapot with hen hallmark

Appraisal complete
Description

A silver teapot with three bands of what appears to be ivory as decoration.  The teapot lid is hinged and the spout and handle appear to be melted onto the sides of the pot.  There is a hen or chicken hallmark on the bottom of the teapot and possibly initials above the hallmark, but they are worn down.  The spout and handle look to have been hammered.  There are two bands that look like rope and one band of dots that are slightly different in color compared to the silver.  The pot is not metallic and will not attract a magnet.
