Description

An elegant mid-to-late Victorian hot water or coffee pot manufactured in Sheffield by the renowned silversmiths Philip Ashberry & Sons.

This piece features a beautifully stylized melon-panelled, bulbous lower body decorated with embossed acanthus leaf motifs. It stands proudly on four ornate organic cast feet and is fitted with a sweeping scrolled handle and an elegant gooseneck pouring spout.
The hinged dome lid remains securely attached and features its original, detailed flower-bud finial.

The base is explicitly stamped with the historical "Seated Britannia with Trident" trademark along with factory pattern markers (5 / 216 / 19). Crucially, the internal brass tightening nut inside the lid features the manufacturer's official legal registry mark: "PHILIP ASHBERRY & SONS • REGISTERED MAY • 18 • 1861 • SHEFFIELD", dating the design's patent exactly to 1861.
Presented in good antique condition, showing honest historical wear consistent with a 140+ year old piece.
Period: Mid-to-Late Victorian (c. 1861–1900)
Origin: Sheffield, England
Material: Britannia Metal (Fine Pewter Alloy)
Maker: Philip Ashberry & Sons
Dimensions: Height: 22 cm (approx. 8.6") | Width (Spout to Handle): 19 cm (approx. 7.5")
