A silver coffee pot with a bulbous body and slender neck topped with a lid connects to a curved handle accented by ivory rings as a narrow spout tapers upward from the other side. The vessel's hammered surface is adorned with raised, curving leaf patterns. Resting on a flared, scalloped foot, the pot features flowing organic lines and fine textures that decorate its metallic exterior from the base to the lid's leaf-shaped finial.
