Thanks for all the help. I think you're right. I came to the conclusion that it is either a really early one or just a mass produced one that was sold cheap.
The second link you sent green is very close but it's double vented on the bottom. I found a few that were like that but none similar with only the one vent.

Hanks for replying. That is actually one of the many places I used to research the item. There are some close but different.

it would have helped  if you,d given this info at the beginning...that way..we don,t need to go over old ground....we,re not mind readers....every little bit of info helps...G,acre..took time to search around...and you come away with..."I,ve already been there"

You're just a tad bit arrogant aren't ya bigwull. You must hate being out of school with no more smaller kids to pick on.

I have a samovar that I have been diligently researching for quite some time now with little knowledge gained. It has no markings that I can find and I have seen no pictures like it anywhere on the web. I have found some that resemble it but with differences. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

It has two chips one on the side and another on top. Both of these show the different layers of wood. The composite would seem more feasible giving the lettering had it not been for the chips I would have agreed. But it is definitely a solid piece. It is old and has probably worn the carving marks away.

Cold you tell me anything about this piece? It appears to be carved out of wood. And quite old. The middle picture shows the name lincoln though it is a poor camera
Thank you for your time.
