FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION WE OFFER THIS ANTIQUE 3 PC. TEA SERVICE, MADE BY REED & BARTON, EST 1824, TAUNTON, MA.

THE HALLMARK ON ALL 3 PIECES IS A GLOBE OVER MF'D & PLATED BY REED & BARTON, 3233. ON THE TEAPOT THE LETTER C IS ADDED AND ON THE CREAM & SUGAR IS THE ADDITION OF THE WORD GILT. THE TEAPOT IS LATE 1800'S -EARLY 1900'S. THE GILT ON THE CREAM & SUGAR LEADS US TO BELIEVE THAT THEY WERE PROBABLY MADE EARLIER---1860'S-70'S. AFTER THE CIVIL WAR REED & BARTON MADE BEAUTIFUL PIECES WITH LARGE AREAS DONE IN GOLD GILTING.

THAT IS THE ONLY EXPLANATION I COULD FIND FOR THE WORD GILT. THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT SCRATCHES ON THIS SET AND THE ONLY INDENTED AREA (LAST PICTURE) IS ON THE ONE FLOWER ON THE SIDE OF THE TEAPOT. IT IS ACTUALLY LESS VISIBLE THAN A SMALL, SHARP DENT WOULD BE.

THE TEAPOT STANDS 7 1/8" AT THE FINIAL AND IS 9" FROM HANDLE TO SPOUT. THE SUGAR BOWL IS 6" FROM HANDLE TO HANDLE AND STANDS 4 1/8" FROM THE TIP OF THE HANDLE. THE CREAMER STANDS 4 1/8" AND IS 5 1/4" FROM HANDLE TO SPOUT. WE DID NOT ATTEMPT ANY CLEANING ON THESE PIECES.

YOU CAN SEE THE TARNISHED AREAS IN THE PICTURES. This item is in the category "Antiques\Silver\Silverplate\Tea/Coffee Pots & Sets". The seller is "treasures-uncovered" and is located in this country: US.
