Description

This is a fine example of an early Victorian silver teapot. It has an attractive octagonal shape with delicate engraved foliate design and floral knob finial. There are cartouches either side of the teapot, one blank and one engraved with an armorial crest of a lion. It has a silver handle with ivory insulators and a hinged lid. It is hallmarked on the main body and below the lid for London, 1845 and the maker William Ker Reid. The hallmark on the main body is worn and partly rubbed but the mark below the lid is clear. It is an excellent quality piece and it weighs approximately 770g.

condition

It is in good condition for its age. There are no major damages to the teapot itself. There have been some repairs to the base at some point but it is watertight now. There are some minor surface marks, small dinks and knocks and the finial looks like it might have taken a knock at some point but it still displays well.
