About the Item

Exquisite 19th-Century Spanish Sterling Rococo Revival Style Coffee Pot Hallmark: "VR" hallmark, indicating Spanish silversmith origin An elegant 19th-century Spanish sterling silver coffee pot showcasing ornate Rococo Revival design with floral garlands, acanthus leaf details, and the distinguished "VR" hallmark. This 19th-century Spanish sterling silver coffee pot is a stunning representation of Rococo Revival design, popular in Europe during the mid to late 19th century. A heavy casting from sterling silver (92.5% purity) weighs 18 ounces, with dimensions of 9” in height, 7” in width, and 4” in depth. It bears the "VR" hallmark, which is believed to be associated with an unidentified Spanish silversmith, probably from Madrid. The coffee pot is adorned with intricate floral garlands that drape elegantly along the body, framed by acanthus leaf patterns that are hallmark features of the Rococo Revival style. The elegantly curved spout, decorated with subtle botanical motifs, complements the ornately designed handle, which features delicate floral accents. The domed lid is topped with a striking floral and leaf finial, adding a luxurious touch. The pot rests on four ornately scrolled legs, each adorned with acanthus leaf embellishments, giving the piece a sense of lightness and refinement. The Rococo Revival style, inspired by the 18th-century French Rococo movement, is known for its asymmetrical curves, floral ornamentation, and opulent detailing. This coffee pot exemplifies those characteristics through its flowing lines, lush botanical decorations, and elegantly sculpted feet. The floral finial on the lid adds a sense of natural beauty, while the scrolled legs provide a refined architectural balance. The use of acanthus leaf motifs—a classic element in European decorative arts—symbolizes enduring life and immortality, while the garland swags represent festivity and abundance. The slender spout and delicately curved handle enhance the piece’s graceful silhouette, making it both a functional object and a statement of luxury and refinement. Ready to place and use.

An angled loop, made of ebonized wood, is applied to the neck by means of a double-cone element having a sphere at its center; it ends in a silver cone...
