Description
Beautiful porcelain urn/dispenser for Armour's Vigoral Beef Tea, circa late 1800's to early 1900's. Pristine condition, completely intact. Only flaw is slight wear of gold filigree around lid. Copper insert with original cloth boullion holder and iron burner? (not sure if this is what this is). This is probably one of only a few complete dispensers to be found. Urn is approximately 30" high (on base) with beautiful vibrant pink carnations. Around top of urn is gold filigree as well as on lid. Made by Altrohla. This particular dispenser came from the original John Wanamaker store in Philadelphia and was used in the employee cafeteria (according to my late grandmother). No cracks, crazing. Iron base has been touched up with paint. I have seen matching cups come up occasionally on Ebay so you can make a nice display! Due to fragility/age of item I will only allow local pickup or buyer can choose to have item shipped to them at their cost and risk.
