Hi - -could anyone help me identify the history of a one-cup teapot I inherited -- it is a greatly loved heirloom that I remember from my childhood and would like to be able to tell my grandchildren about.
The stamp says:
Toronto
1847
Meriden Silver-Nickel Soldered
02200
Something has been scratched out -- looks like a number. Another number has been etched in by hand "52801"
The stamp appears to be a Meriden stamp of the Phoenix but it looks like a different version than those I have seen online for the Meriden-Britannia company. The date on the teapot also predates the formation of the Meriden-Britannia company.
Any information that could be provided would be greatly appreciated!
thank you!
