Vintage pewter teapot with hinged lid from an estate sale. Bottom is marked TRADE CONTINENTAL MARK PEWTER 804 around an early soldier holding rifle or gun. Hinged lid works smoothly. A few small dings and surface scratches/marks from use, nothing very big. Top of lid looks slightly bent, but since pewter is soft, could probably be bent back, it's not too terribly noticable. It is a very simple design. Could use a very good cleaning. Stands approx 8" tall and 8" wide (tip of spout to handle). Nice collectors piece of old pewter.
The estate sale where I found this was that of an elderly antique dealer whose items we were told had been boxed away since the 70's. Everything was sold by boxful. Lots of neat finds (old pewter, blue glass, hand blown glass, knick knacks), so check back, I will be listing a variety of items as I sort through and as my time permits. This was my first estate sale (I’m hooked now) and I really don't know much about antiques (other than what I've enjoyed learning here on e-bay), so I will describe each item as best I can. I welcome any questions or comments. All items will be well packaged!
Please ask any questions prior to bidding. I will be happy to combine shipping, which I really try to keep about actual cost, no extras. I try to ship quickly (usually next day). Please pay within 5 days of auction close, or email me to let me know if that is a problem before bidding, I’m very willing to work with you! All items are well packaged! Thank you very much for your time.
