Maker's marks on the piece include Atkin Brothers of Sheffield, along with a design registration number. The item measures 32 cm high, 24 cm wide, and 13 cm deep.

FAQs

A spirit kettle is a table-top tea kettle mounted on a raised frame equipped with a small alcohol burner underneath. Popular from the 18th to early 20th centuries, it was designed to keep water hot at the tea table without requiring a stove.

These pieces are typically constructed from electroplated nickel silver (EPNS) or solid sterling silver. The handles often feature bone, ivory, or wooden heat insulators to protect the users hand when pouring.

Authentic silver-plated kettles feature makers marks, electroplate stamps such as EPNS, or registration numbers on the underside. Original spirit stands include retention pins attached by small chains and a matching spirit lamp.

A silver spirit kettle serves as a classic centrepiece on a sideboard, drinks trolley, or dining table. It bridges traditional and contemporary aesthetics when paired with natural wood surfaces or marble countertops.

Clean silver plate using a soft, lint-free cloth and specialised silver polish to avoid removing the thin layer of silver. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive pads, and direct contact with water on delicate handle insulators.
