Long Description
This was located in my great grandfathers house and my Father and I are trying to estimate the value. It is a large Cauldron or Pot. The markings on the bottom don't appear to be in English and they are in a circle surrounding an eagle. Considering it's obvious age it is in good condition.
History
Located in my great grandfathers attic upon his death.

Re: Brass or Copper Cauldron. Lion handles, footed. Engraved...
Looks like the copper chamber pot I have. Not sure of the year. Hope this helps, or is a clue for you.
Re: Brass or Copper Cauldron. Lion handles, footed. Engraved...
Looks like a Continental piece, but more of a decorative piece than an actual cauldron, most likely used for fireplace ashes. We'd retail one for about $100.00
