Coffee pot - Silverplated - Hot Water Jug, 1920-1940
An elegant silver plated hot water jug or coffee pot dating from the early 20th century, displaying a refined and well-balanced form characteristic of the transitional period between late Art Nouveau and early modern design.
The body is gently tapering with a stepped shoulder and pedestal base, giving the piece a sense of structure while retaining soft, flowing lines. It is fitted with a gracefully curved ebonised handle, adding both visual contrast and practical insulation. The domed hinged lid incorporates a thumb lever for ease of use, and the spout is shaped for controlled pouring.
The underside bears marks including EPNS and a serial number, indicating electroplated nickel silver manufacture, typical of quality English tableware of the period.
Condition is good vintage, with signs of age and use including light surface scratches, minor wear to the plating and small imperfections consistent with polishing and handling over time. The hinge functions correctly and the lid closes well, and the handle remains secure.
A refined and decorative piece, suitable for collectors of early 20th century tableware or as an elegant addition to a traditional or period-inspired interior.
