Description

This magnificent antique George III sterling silver samovar has a circular rounded, baluster shaped form supported by a spreading circular pedestal to a square base and four Regency style claw and ball feet.

The surface of the samovar is embellished with exceptional chased stemmed floral and foliate ornamentation accented with bands of subtly convex fluted decoration, all in a swirl design.

The anterior surface of the samovar incorporates a large scroll bordered cartouche displaying a contemporary bright cut engraved coat of arms.

The upper rim of the body is encircled with an applied gadroon decorated border.

The body of this magnificent sterling silver samovar is fitted with an impressive tap embellished with an applied stemmed floral, bud and foliate design, matching the decoration to that of the body.

The tap is fitted with a painted carved wood fan shaped spigot/handle.

The samovar is fitted with a pair of exceptional chased decorated handles realistically modelled in the form of looped branches.

This impressive Georgian samovar retains the original hallmarked domed push fit cover encompased with further scaled chased floral and fluted ornamenation.

The cover is surmounted with an exceptional and original sterling silver floral and foliate finial.

The body of the samovar secures to the pedestal with a bayonet fitment to the rim and detaches to allow access to the cylindrical coal chamber.

This pierced decorated grille/compartment secures with a bolt fitting to the centre of the hallmarked pedestal.

The pedestal and square base are each encompassed with further applied gadroon decorated borders in addition to a continuation of fluted and floral ornamentation.

The sides of the base are ornamented with panels of pierced quatrefoil motifs.

The impressive base is supported by four impressive claw and ball feet, in the classic Regency style.

The intricate craftmanship of this magnificent samovar indicates the high quality of the piece and is probably the finest example of its type you could hope to acquire.

Condition

This antique samovar is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition.

The chased decoration is all very sharp and the bright cut engraved coat of arms is very crisp.

Full hallmarks struck to the pedestal and underside of the body, in addition to part hallmarks to the sleeve of the cover are all very clear.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this piece of Georgian silverware.
