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.
The piece stands out for excellent handcrafted work inspired by Neoclassical / Empire style, featuring finely hand-worked details:
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
Material: Silver 800 ("800" mark in an oval on the base)
Total weight: 750 grams
Era: First half of the 20th century (about 1920–1950)
Condition
The item is presented in excellent period-conservative conditions. Structurally integral, free from cracks or significant dents. It features a beautiful natural patina of the silver due to time, with slight surface oxidations that guarantee its authenticity (polishable at the buyer’s discretion).
Photos are an integral part of the description and show the object from every angle, including the marks and the weight measurement on a scale.
