Coffee pot produced by Johan Bergengren in Kristianstad, 1764. The pot is one of the best known Swedish silver coffee pots from the Rococo. It has even been depicted on a stamp. The pot was made in silver, using a circular plate that was chiselled upwards and given its ridges. The foot, spout and the black-stained wooden handle were then soldered on. The knob on the lid is shaped like a flower.
