ANTIQUE ROCKFORD SILVER-PLATE CO., QUADRUPLE PLATED COFFEE POT

The Rockford Silver Plate Company was formed in 1882 after a fire ravaged Racine, Wisconsin and the Racine Silver Plate company was destroyed. The City of Rockford, Ill. asked its owners to rebuild there and the name was changed to Rockford Silver Plate Company in 1882. Their silver plated pieces were of very high quality and sold only through select jewelry stores. The company continued operations in Illinois until 1925 at which point the Rockford plant was purchased by Raymond Sheets, and it was renamed Sheets-R.S. Co.

Quadruple silver plate was some of the highest quality made during the late part of the 19th Century. "Quadruple" silver-plated items are four times as heavily plated with silver than items marked “Standard” silver-plated.

This is a Stunning Rockford “Quadruple” Silver Plated Coffee Pot

This Rockford piece is the embodiment of true art form with intricate floral design and nature scenery throughout. The body has an engraved chest with stunning florals, bamboo, star-bursts, vine motifs, scroll work and beading. There are many different accents in this piece including a Geometric design on the top border. The handle and spout are wrapped with a repoussed antique pattern; the original insulators garish the handle with care. The footed base is also decorated with detailed floral and amazing design elements. The coffeepot is finished with a simple finial on top.

CONDITION: Very Good! The only thing we found was a few small dents on the upper collar. Few minor surface scratches from use and cleaning.
There are also a few other imperfections.
