This is a gorgeous old coffee pot! It has violets, ferns, a rose, and a white calla lily rendered in enamel against a creamy white background color on both front and back. I see no damage to the enamel on the outer surface. The pewter top is hinged, as is the spout. There is a fancy finial on the top, and a scroll or stylzed leaf in relief under the spout. The handle is also quite ornate, with leaves and a flower. The bottom handle is affixed to the pot on top of an oval disk; it is soldered to the pewter on the rim of the lid. I note a small (1/4 inch) ding on the shoulder of the pewter on one side. The base of the pot is also enamel; there is a rim of metal around the base that appears to be copper. This pot has been loved and used: the bottom is very clean and without damage. However, the bottom of the inside has 2 dime-size spots where the enamel cracked off.
