Kettle on stand and burner - Wood, Silverplated - Aesthetic Movement style

Victorian Silver-Plated Kettle on Naturalistic Branch Stand with Spirit Burner – Engraved Oak Leaf Decoration – ca. 1880–1910

A beautifully crafted Victorian silver-plated tea kettle complete with its original naturalistic stand and spirit burner. The stand is modelled as intertwined branches, a distinctive late 19th-century design influenced by the Victorian fascination with natural forms. The kettle itself is decorated with finely engraved oak leaves and acorns in the Aesthetic Movement style, and it features a turned wooden handle for safe and comfortable lifting.

The kettle sits securely in the stand and can be removed easily. The original spirit burner is present and includes its round body, wick housing and sliding wick-adjuster arm. It fits correctly beneath the kettle for warming water or tea at the table.

The kettle, stand and burner are all in original antique condition with the expected signs of age. The silver plating shows general wear and tarnish throughout, particularly on raised areas, but the engravings remain clear. The wooden handle is intact and secure. The spirit burner shows surface wear but is complete, including the wick-adjuster arm and cap. There are no major dents or structural damages, and all components fit and function as intended. The set displays very well and retains its authentic Victorian character.
