Description
A brass spirit kettle on stand by Bradley & Hubbard, featuring a compressed globular body decorated with a wide central band of repoussé floral and foliate motifs. The kettle is fitted with a stepped, domed lid topped by a turned wooden finial and a high, fixed brass handle with a horizontal wooden grip. The vessel sits upon a matching four-legged brass stand of angular design, which houses a central circular spirit burner.
Condition report:
The piece shows characteristic age-related tarnish and surface oxidation throughout. There is visible residue around the spout joint and wear to the wooden elements, though the lot appears to be structurally complete.
