Very solid and beautifully engraved with lions heads and pows on the supporting legs. The samovar is in great shape, very well preserved and can be used for hot water and tea. Because the surface of the samovar is still shinny ( even not being polished) the pictures are showing all kinds of shadows ( more dark or more shinny spots) This is because of light reflections.
