Silverplate ?? Sterling Teapot. I need help identifying this piece. If need be I could post more pics of the bottom. I know there is a #1 and the letter B on the bottom with some scrolling emblem of some kind. Thank you for any help here.......I did clean it up after taking these photos and it really cleaned up nicely.
here's a guess -- appears to be silverplate -- in pic 3 you can see the base metal showing where the silver has worn away -- origin -- design and hallmark looks like it might be from the country of perhaps eygpt, iran, iraq, india or turkey --bird appears to be a falcon which as in other countries was helpful in the hunt -- nice piece
