Title: Antique/Vintage Viking Plate Footed Teapot, Silver Plated E.P. Copper, Made in Canada, Mid Century Teaware, Afternoon Tea, Collectible Tableware, For Display
Charming Viking Plate teapot. Crafted in Canada, this piece showcases classic design elements that evoke a sense of timeless sophistication.
Features:
Material: Silver-plated on copper (E.P. Copper, lead mounts), a common practice for quality vintage silver plate items.
Note: The backstamp "LEAD MOUNTS," indicates that lead is used in the base or mounts of the item, likely as a weighting material. The item is electroplated silver on a copper base (E.P. Copper). The lead is typically contained within the object and covered by the other metals (copper and silver plate). It is generally not considered dangerous in this form as long as the plating is intact and the item is not used for food or drink, which could cause the lead to leach out. If you are concerned about lead exposure, it is best to avoid using it for food or drink.
Design: Features a squat, rounded body with a footed base and a hinged lid topped with a decorative finial.
Embellishments: Adorned with a delicate, fancy rope embellishment around the widest part of the pot.
Handle: The ornate, C-shaped handle is made of black Bakelite, which provides a heat-resistant grip and a striking contrast to the silver finish.
Origin: Marked "Viking Plate, Made in Canada," likely dating to the 1920s or 1930s.
Dimensions: 6 inches height, 10.75 inches width (spout to handle).
Condition: Lovely, character-filled antique/vintage teapot. This piece has been gently used and cherished over the years, showing honest signs of age, including light surface wear, stains/discoloration on bottom and a small, subtle dent on the side. Please see the last three pictures for a close-up.
