HI; I OWN THE TEAPOT ON THE ATTACHED PICTURES. I WOULD LIKE TO SELL IT BUT ALSO WANT TO KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT IT. NO MARKS ANYWHERE. THIS IS WHAT I THINK IT IS. CAN YOU VERIFY OR ADD TO THIS DESCRIPTION AND TELL ME IT'S VALUE AT AUCTION
This appears to be an Art Nouveau tea pot that is luxuriously decorated with very dimensional hand CHASING and a reposse’ process. Styled with sinuous curves, naturalistic motif floral, and acanthus leavesfoliate design. This style was popular from about 1895 to 1905. The finial is a flower blossom resting in a leafy grouping. The lid is hinged. The goose spout has leaves at the tip; the base of the spout has leaves gracefully clustering feathers. The “C” shaped handle has the original ivory insulators. The pedestal circular base has decorative edging that is made up of a line of beads which could be applied or embossed. Measures approximately 10.5” high and 12.5” spout to end of handle.
It is in excellent condition. The interior is smooth except for the inside of the lid.
I believe it to be SILVERPLATED HOLLOWARE QUADRUPLE PLATE.
Set consists of queensized headboard and footboard, highboy with 5 drawers, dresser with 9 drawers, one night table. There is also a mirror frame but the mirror was broken. It appears to be mid century but I cannot seem to find a mark to identify it. I am unable at this time to produce a picture. Can someone please tell me how to identify the era when this set was made and also how to place a value on it. I want to sell it but I dont want to cheat myself or the buyer.
i am sorry-i really only know that she has had it as long as I have been alive-there are baby pix of me that it is in. She was Greek and her collectibles EXTREMELY vary in origin-as you will see. I have some incredible things... I kind of think that it may be of Turkish origin-just a memory flash though.
