Silver Coffee-Pot and Hot-Water Jug

William Ayrtoun, 1713

The Coffee-pot is octagonal sided in the Queen Anne style. The Jug, although it matches the style of the pot and was made in same year, is different due to its low lid; raising doubts as to whether it was intended as a set. May even be a tea-pot itself.
