Exceptional, rare and unique item! There are photos that looks like their is beige color ...or copper color on the piece. That is my reflection. Couldn't get that out. Measures 18.5" including the lid. This piece is very heavy! About 4560 grams give or take a few grams. Over 10 pounds!. Extremely well made. Also its in great condition. The knob of the lid also comes up to release steam. eBay only allows 12 pictures unfortunately so I had to pick and choose. The piece that holds the flame can come off. It looks like it's missing a lid. See pics. The lid also comes off. So 3 pieces total. There are 4 engravings. Not sure of their significance. 3 of them are on the lid. The previous owners came to the US on the Mayflower and were extremely wealthy. I chose not to polish it. This is the heaviest sterling Samovar I've seen. If you would like additional photos please email me and I will send you whatever you'd like.
