Made from unglazed dry bodied stoneware, it has sprigged decoration on the top portion, a\u00a0ribbed lower portion, and silver lustre painted\u00a0trim lines.\u00a0It measures 8.5 inches high and 7.75 inches wide from handle to spout.\u00a0On the underside is the impressed mark S. HOLLINS.<\/p>\n<p>It appears that soon after the coffee pot was made, the tip of the spout broke off and the lid went missing. Luckily for the owner, a local tinsmith made a sturdy metal replacement lid, adding a hinge and a sawtooth edged collar. Although quite different in appearance, the new lid\u00a0is more likely to remain on the pot, and the chance of another mishap his less likely.<\/p>\n<p><a
