Antique English Spirit Kettle by Martin Hall c1880
A quite fabulous and highly ornate silver plated spirit kettle, with floral and foliate repousse panels with hand chasing.
The stand is supported by the most elegant splayed feet and the kettle secured with the use of two "keys" one releases the back of the kettle so that it could pivot on the front hinge to pour while still on the stand. The key to the front can also be released removing the kettle completely. There is a burner below which would have been filled with fuel to light the wick, keeping the water hot and ready to top-up the teapot.
The stand is decorated with wonderful cast floral and foliate garlands. What also makes this kettle a particularly special example is the grand Pumpkin finial to the lid, the figural spout terminating with a birds head and further down an integral mythical face quite exceptional.
The underside is fully marked for the well renowned silversmith, Martin Hall & Co, dating to around 1880.
An impressive and grand size, measuring 9 1/4" including spout and towering 15 1/2" tall to top of handle.
