AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Approximately 300-year-old silver repoussé teapot, made at the beginning of the 18th century, dated 1737
adorned with acanthus leaf motifs.

Goldsmith from Amsterdam: Reinier Brandt (born 1707 and active in Amsterdam 1730-1780)

Master mark three St. Andrew's crosses derived from the city coat of arms
Assay mark (Hollandse Leeuw) .934/1000 silver

Typical features of 18th-century silver teapots:
- bellied (ribbed) body, repoussé decoration with foliate motifs under the rim, curved spout, reed-wrapped handle (heat resistant), lid with chain so it does not come loose

This silver teapot has always stood in a display cabinet and is in excellent condition. Museum-worthy.
Total gross weight: 313 g.

Early Amsterdam teapots from the 1730s are quite rare because:

1) tea culture at the time was still relatively new

2) many pots were later melted down

3) the early Rococo transitional type is relatively scarce.

Professionally packaged.
