    Based on the rough welds and the type of brass, I'm guessing these were actually made to be lamps and were never really samovars, but I'm willing to ask others. My son found them someplace. One is not made into a lamp, but if you look inside the hole in the base, you can see filigree openings in the body of the piece. The little teapot is separate.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I truly hope that they were originally lamps, and not converted from real samovars! Do any of them have marks?
