TEA POT MAKER UNKNOWN

By barbaracohen, 9 January, 2008
Description

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. THANKS BABS PS CANNOT GET PICTURES THROUGH YOUR ICON. PLEASE ADVISE. HAVE PLENTY OF GREAT PHOTOS. 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 leaves foliate 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. Any information will be appreciated.
