Description
Beautiful vintage F.B. Rogers Silver Co. silverplate tea/hot water kettle featuring an unusually ornate design with a dramatic overhead handle, long decorated spout, hinged domed lid and decorative finial.
The underside bears the recognizable F.B. Rogers Silver Co. “TRADE MARK 1883” crown mark. The 1883 marking is associated with the F.B. Rogers trademark and is not being represented as the manufacture date of this individual piece.
The kettle has wonderful decorative details throughout, particularly along the handle supports and sweeping spout. Its substantial size and weight give it excellent presence for display, a vintage silver collection, tea service décor, or traditional dining-room styling.

Please note that one decorative side knob/stud is missing. There is also tarnish, spotting, surface wear and plating wear consistent with vintage use and age. These characteristics have been photographed and are reflected in the price.
