Antique Russian Brass Samovar with Original Base and Maker’s Mark – 19th/20th Century This is a rare and impressive antique Russian samovar, crafted in brass and preserved with its original matching base, a feature that is seldom found intact. The samovar showcases a tall, tapering body with turned wooden side handles and a finely shaped brass tap. The detachable base with pierced floral decoration and bold form complements the samovar perfectly. The surface shows a beautiful natural patina, developed over time, enhancing its authenticity and antique character. One minor flaw: the fuel reservoir shows a small age-related issue underneath, clearly visible in the photos. Otherwise, the piece remains in solid condition for its age. An important highlight is the maker’s mark: a finely struck stamp featuring a spread-wing eagle with additional characters below (visible in the photographs), confirming its authentic workshop production. • Estimated period: Late 19th – early 20th century • Material: Brass, with wooden handles • Weight: Samovar 3076 g; base 3052 g; total 6128 g • Dimensions: Clearly visible in the photos • Condition: Natural patina, age-related wear, no structural cracks Please note: The photographs are an integral part of the item description and condition report.
