Description from the seller
Neapolitan coffee maker "Cuccumella" from antique silver 800 – Zoömorphic spout (750 g)
Rare and refined Neapolitan coffee maker for collection (traditional cuccumella) made entirely in silver 800, dating to the first half of the 20th century.

Zöömorphic spout sculpted and repoussé in the shape of an eagle head / mythological monster.
Lid knob finely finished in the shape of a fluted pinecone.
Shaped handles decorated with foliate motifs and botanical reliefs.
Complete set: Retains all its original, stackable components (water reservoir, collection reservoir with spout, lid, and the perforated inner filter with the corresponding tightening disk).
Technical Details

Total weight: 750 grams
Era: First half of the 20th century (about 1920–1950)
Condition
