Buyer's premium:

Reed and Barton silverplate hot water kettle on burner stand. Stamped twice MFG & PLATED BY REED & BARTON 3630 PATENT APPLIED FOR. Approx. overall height 13.75 in.

Condition: Kettle and stand are in overall very good condition. There are areas of oxidation – these do appear to brighten with polish. There are areas with polish residue to crevices such as above the scrolled legs. We would recommend a thorough cleaning/polishing. The pegs are in very condition and the wear is commensurate; the one peg with locking mechanism does work. There is an intentional ‘well’ to one side for the lid to rest when open – preventing the finial on lid from striking the body (see images 15, 16 and 17). The feet on the burner/stand are filled with cork. There is a slight rocking to the base as the cork has not worn evenly (see image 18). All items are sold as-is where-is. With all faults and errors. We are happy to assist with additional photographs, explanations, condition reports, or in person examinations on any piece. Watches may be subject to aftermarket modifications. Designer jewelry is sold as "in the manner of…" unless otherwise stated. Please note, for all invoices over 5000USD we require payment via wire or other certified funds.
