This English sterling silver coffee pot is an exceptional gauge of silver for its type, exceptional quality and in excellent condition.

There is some surface wear to the body in keeping with age, however the piece can be considered to be in presentation condition.

Full hallmarks struck to the underside of the coffee pot, in addition to the part hallmarks to the interior of the cover and surface of the finial are all very clear.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this example of Victorian teaware.
