This beautiful antique solid brass ornamental "samovar" with hand chased detailing and a brass tap is a very old piece and measures 23cm tall x 12cm wide. The samovar is ornamental and has age and usage related wear and tear, dents and mends which adds to the charm. Please view the pics carefully to fully appreciate this wonderful antique samovar and to confirm the condition.
From the internet: "A samovar, literally "self-boiler” is a heated metal container traditionally used to heat and boil water in and around Russia as well as in other countries: Central Europe, South-Eastern Europe, Eastern Europe, Iran, Kashmir and the Middle-East. Since the heated water is typically used to make tea, many samovars have a ring-shaped attachment around the chimney to hold and heat a teapot filled with tea concentrate. Though traditionally heated with coal or charcoal, many newer samovars use electricity to heat water in a manner similar to an electric water boiler. Antique samovars are often prized for their beautiful workmanship."
