Size and dimensions of this item
8 1/2 inches from base to top. Approx 9 inches from the widest (the edge of handle, to edge of spout). The widest part of the base is approx 5 inches. The opening is about 3 1/2 inches.
Long Description
Hinged lid, still has hinge pin.
4 legs that the base sits on vs. sitting flat to the table.
One one side there is an engraved flower sitting on a vine or branch.
Which means to one side the branch jets out with leaves, to the other side you see the beginning of the branch with a few leaves.
I am not sure yet if I want to sell the item, but I would like to know the approximate value of it.
History
We know this was handed down through my husband's family. We know for certian it was his great grandmother's. We do not know if anyone owned it prior to her.

Re: Beacon Silver Co. Teapot
 Did you ever get an answer?  I have the exact same teapot I got at an estate sale.  Would like to know the value.  Thanks.  Oh and it has a hand etched number above the Beacon stamp that reads 4048.  ???
