Description and Details
We are delighted to offer this magnificent Georgian solid silver teapot made in London 1830 with marks of Edward, Edward junior, John & William Barnard.
As expected from the Barnards', this teapot has been meticulously crafted and ornately decorated in the most exquisite manner. The teapot features a melon-shaped design that blends seamlessly with a spectacularly detailed hand-chased sea spume section on top.
The top lid matches the melon-shaped body with a floral finial on top. The foot presents additional embellishing that forms a wave-like design, embracing the nautical theme to its fullest, perhaps also symbolising the plentiful tea that could be held within.
The teapot is hallmarked with full English marks on the base.
