About this work

Tin coffee pot, a so-called spout pot. The feet are formed by volutes and rest on wooden balls. Above this is the pear-shaped, hexagonal pot. Just below the rim, the handle is attached, which extends to the widest point of the pot and is partly made of wood. At the bottom of the belly is the spout. The loose lid is hexagonal and has a wooden knob. The pot comes with a tin leaf that serves as a stand. On the three wooden feet lies a leaf with a raised, openwork band. On top of this stands a warming pan on three feet. The upper rim of the warming pan is decorated with an openwork band with garlands.
