Square Copper Ship's Kettle

Square Copper Ship's Kettle

Sold

A square, Copper Kettle thought to be made for use on board ship.

The kettle is a large size and all copper with seams to the front and back of the body. The spout is braised on, and the handle held by 2 rivets to each end. To the front, the number 3 is stamped between the rivets and this may denote a size, model or perhaps references a mess or location on board. Being square would help prevent movement of the kettle when used or stored. Circa 1870.
