Please be advised that I do not use "flash" in my photos, as this distorts the actual image
of the items I display and represent.  I only use natural filtered lighting so as to capture
the fine impressions and details, to present my items in their true appearance.
Also, know that when photographing shiny and reflective objects as silver, there will
be "backdrop images" that distort the actual image/impressions of the item(s).

TILTING/POURING WATER PITCHER + STAND
An Impressive Antique Tilt Water Pitcher Set Indeed!!
This stunning set displays beautiful embossed Art Deco designs
all around the water pitcher, as well as to the stand.
The pitcher pot itself has two layered walls of metal plating, one to the exterior
and one to the interior.  The purpose for these walls of metal are for insulation,
acting as a "Thermos" so to speak, keeping the liquid within the pot either cold or hot!
This set was coated with heavy black tarnish, and has been polished to
remove a large majority of the the tarnish, though not all completely/entirely.
A Gothic style letter "P" is visible just underneath the spout (view photo #5 for this detail).
There is quite a lot of silver plate loss detected on both the pitcher and stand.
The interior of the pot is clean and stain free, with no indication of corrosion/rust or pitting.
Both the pitcher and stand displays quite some wear, and the the upper base to the stand
has 4 small dimples, though both pieces still remain to be a beautiful part of our history.
Light scratches & scuffs all around due to use and age.
Overall, this set is considered to be in good vintage condition for it's age.
Hand Wash Only!  Do Not Place in Dishwasher!
