Chinese Silver and Enamel Teapot

About the Item

SILVER FILIGREE LINKED CHAIN BODY From our Chinese collection, we are delighted to offer this exceptional Chinese Silver and Enamel Teapot. The Teapot of traditional form upon a solid silver base with silver filigree linked chain across the body. The Teapot Body is decorated with vibrant enamels stemming from around the handle through strong cherry blossom branches with blossoming flowers and multiple magpie birds. The handle, spout, top rim and lid each have a blue enamel border with a further enamel border to the lid and finial. The interior of the Teapot is silver gilded and has a built in strainer covering the spout outlet, with traces of original gilding to the exterior and is stamped ‘silver’ to the base. The Chinese Silver and Enamel Teapot dates to the middle of the 20th century and the end of the Republic of China circa 1945. REPUBLIC OF CHINA (ROC) is the official name of Taiwan, an island country in East Asia. The ROC was established in 1912 after the Xinhai Revolution overthrew the Qing dynasty and ended China’s imperial rule. The ROC has been governed independently from mainland China, officially known as the People’s Republic of China (PRC), since 1949. SILVER GILT is silver which has been covered with an exterior coating of gold. FILIGREE is a delicate ornamental detail woven with strips of silver, gold, or other metals, often to create a pattern or decoration. ENAMEL (VITREOUS ENAMEL) also known as porcelain enamel, is a material made by fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing, usually between 750 and 850 °C. The powder melts, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating. The word vitreous comes from the Latin vitreous, meaning “glassy”.
