Unusual cubist copper kettle
« on: October 24, 2014, 02:08:21 pm »
Hi,
I have come across this really unusual square based copper kettle. I am struggling to find much info on it online apart from a rough date of 1920. I really like it but would be interested in knowing its value. Any info much appreciated.

 Cheers
Martin

I can't find the page that dated one as 1920 but I have just found this page;

http://www.dagrotterdam.nl/vintage_and_design.php?product=962ab3ea89

I have emailed the company to ask for a price for theirs.

There are no markings anywhere on the kettle as far as I can see though here are some more pics.

Yeah that's definitely the same one. Has been taken off the 1st dibs website though so no more info. Seems to be a bit earlier than 1920 and possibly Bauhaus.

DAG Rotterdam, who have one for sale, emailed me back with a price of 775 euro. I think they may be pushing it a bit but I paid nowhere near that kind of money . Hopefully on to a winner
