This exceptional antique George V sterling silver spirit kettle has a circular rounded form, in the Queen Anne style.
The body of this antique silver kettle is plain and unembellished, with an applied moulded border to the rim.
This antique silver spirit kettle is fitted with a domed hinged hallmarked cover surmounted with a cast sterling silver knopped finial.
This fine example of antique silver teaware is fitted with an impressive incurved handle featuring the original carved stained oak wood handpiece to scrolling terminals.
The kettle bears an impressive cast swan necked spout, accented with a scrolling thumbpiece to the tip of the lip.
