It is an interesting piece. I'm thinking that is a combination of old and
new. The base looks as though it was cast and not handmade. Does this heat
water with an oil flame underneath?

It heats water from the firewoord, cones, or coal that you put in the
middle furnace. So the time of manufacture is inconclusive?

Thanks.

I can't see the decoration very clearly. I am thinking it is some kind
of middle-eastern (Turkish?) coffee making
device.......but it is really a mystery because the style is not like
those I have seen. Parts look kind of American,
but what it is........an espresso maker???? The metal finials on the
top of the large pot.....just decoration? Any
makers marks on the bottom? Would be interesting to take to the
Antiques Road Show :o)
