This is for a Russian Brass Samovar. Designed to heat water for tea, this comes with a removable handle and top. No tea pot with this. This is about 18 tall.
This needs a good polish (I polished the areas that show the name, design and markings) and the inside needs a good cleaning. This is a heavy item. See its description in photos.It does hold water but the spigot does leak. I put a new o-ring on but it may have been the wrong size??
