Made by WMF, Wurttembergische Metallwaren Fabrik , this is a hot water kettle, on a stand, complete with lamp (which is the smaller removable round piece that sits at the bottom of the stand. The finish is brass and has a planished, or hand hammered, look. The bottom of the kettle is impressed with the WMF "bee hive" mark that was introduced in 1909. Below this is the number 108. The lamp is also impressed with the beehive mark and the number 24. The handle of the kettle has woven flat reed around it - there is one break in the underside of the reed (see photo). The entire piece stands approx. 14" high. Nice detail around the top of the body of the kettle - and a great impressed design on the three legs of the stand. One very small (<1/16") bump up on the lid, near the edge. Normal wear but no major problems. The entire piece is in generally very nice condition. (#T-1624)
