Teapot 1813 - 1820

"Teapot" is a sterling silver teapot created by William B. Heyer between 1813 and 1820. The piece features a rounded body with a decorative border on the lid and a wooden handle. The teapot rests on a circular base with three ball feet. Heyer was a silversmith from New York, who sadly passed away at the young age of 18 in 1822. Today, the teapot is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York, NY.
