ABOUT THE ITEM
This beautiful cast aluminum tea kettle was manufactured by Wagner Ware in Sidney, Ohio. We are unsure of the age of this kettle but believe it to be from the early 20th century. The kettle has a black wooden handle and a hinged lid. The bottom is marked: "Wagner Ware, Sidney -O-, Colonial Tea Kettle, 4 QTS, 106B." This kettle shows signs of lots of use over the years that really add to its charm. There is some oxidation inside the kettle (see photo) that we believe could probably be cleaned up if the intention was to use this item, but it's a great decorative piece as well!
Wagner Ware is very collectible. The company was organized in 1891 in Sidney, Ohio. While the company is best known for its cast iron cookware, it also developed a line of seamless cast aluminum cookware that was heavier than typical aluminum cookware. The company received numerous awards for their cast aluminum cookware.
