Gorham Sterling Teapot. Height: 10". Monogrammed 19th century teapot with two ivory decorative accents to handle. Bottom stamped with Gorham mark and "STERLING / A2111 / 3¼ PINT". Minor finish wear, a few small dings around the belly, the handle needs to be tightened, otherwise nice luster, very attractive shape and decoration. Very good condition.
Floral and foliate chased and repoussé decorations accent the somewhat Rococo lines of our offering -- we spot three types of flowers, acanthus and several other leaves. Elegant scrolled feet and an ornate finial complete this wonderful vestige of more formal times.
Estimated Value $350 - 450.
