A silver coffee pot features an urn-shaped body tapering to a narrow neck and standing on a square base. A dark wood handle curves from the side while a long, arching spout extends opposite. A domed lid topped with a tiered finial covers the vessel. Beaded bands trim the rim, waist, and foot, and three intertwined script letters are engraved in the center of the polished, reflective body.
