This is a wonderful example of the exciting metal work done during the Taisho period in Japan. This Japanese tea kettle is copper with raised beading and a reddish patina. It is artist signed on the bottom.The copper has a pattern on it and variations of color due to age.The teapot measures approximately 10" high including the handle and is approximately 7 1/2" at its widest point. There are a few dings on the bottom of the pot and a bit of the copper has that greenish tinge that comes with age. I have not tried to polish this piece as it is beautiful to me as is. Otherwise, this piece is a great example of quality Japanese metal work of the Taisho period.
