放在支架和燃烧器上的水壶 - .800 银 - 0.800 银，19世纪

Monumental silver tee kettle (bulloire) on a warming stand, probably Italy, 19th century

800-grade silver | total weight: 3280 g

A striking, richly decorated object, crafted from 800-grade silver, likely in Italy during the 19th century.
This imposing, stately piece combines utility with the highly decorative form characteristic of the era's luxury silverware.

The vessel’s body features a prominent, multi-faceted gadrooned shape, resting on a matching, richly profiled stand equipped with a warming unit. The silver surface is adorned with subtle, hand-engraved ornamentation featuring floral and decorative motifs. Particularly noteworthy are the sculptural structural elements: the fancifully curved spout, elaborate handle mounts, a decorative lid finial, and the artfully shaped feet of the base.

A distinctive, tall, pivoting handle—fitted with a dark wooden insulator—gives the piece a striking silhouette and evokes its original purpose. The lid, body, and base form a cohesive composition in which practical function is subordinated to a stately, almost palatial aesthetic.

The set has impressive total weight—an astounding 3280 grams
Natural patina and subtle signs of use on the surface underscore the object's age and historical character. The piece retains an attractive, striking appearance and serves equally well as the centerpiece of an antique silver collection or as an exceptional decorative element in a classic interior.
