Classic sterling silver teapot with a vintage monogram on base. Hallmark indicates Birmingham silver. Elegant curved spout and decorative lid for refined serving. Ideal for tea service and as a statement piece. I have not tried to remove all the tarnish for fear of damaging the item. There is one small dent a craftsperson could fix. It is a very sweet teapot. Trying to say goodbye to things I meant to use but didn’t.
