| DESCRIPTION | Superb George I style English solid sterling silver coffee pot and sugar bowl. These are highest quality and
faithful replicas of pieces made around 1723. The basic tapering cylindrical shape is reminiscent of the very first coffee pots made of tin from
the 17th century but here the design has been refined. The simple cone lid has evolved into an elegant dome with an acorn finial and the
straight spout and plain handle developed into sumptuous, sensual, curves and scrolls. Holds 25 fluid ounces or around 710ml.
Would match well with the cream jug m7404. |
