WMF / Geislingen - Samovar - 38 - Metal

Antique Samovar / Coffee Pot WMF

The item for auction is an elegant, antique brewing device (samovar) from the renowned German manufactory WMF. The piece is crafted in Art Nouveau style, characterized by a beautiful form, fluting in the lower part of the body, and period-typical decorations at the base of the feet.

Additional elements: Original burner included, handles and a valve knob with braided wrapping (likely rattan/wicker).
The item shows natural signs of many years of use and the passage of time. Please review the photos, which depict:

Surface: Numerous micro-scratches, wear to the silvering, and local tarnishing (darker spots and streaks).

Coating damage: Local losses (visible, including on the body and base).

Dents: Gentle, shallow dents on the smooth part of the body.

Braiding: The rattan wrappings on the handles are complete but show dirt and natural patina.
