Featured old riveted tinned copper kettle

Howdy folks

found this unusual looking kettle? at a boot sale today for peanuts

1st of the year, and maybe the last, was godawful but one guy had some interesting things

be interesting to find out how old it is, and where it originates from

i think originally a tinned copper

the rivets on the top look interested, could be a repair actually thinking about it

any thoughts or info appreciated

 

about 12 inches

 

I reckon that’s for water and is North African.

 

interesting, thanks obb. will look into that

image search seems to be suggesting allsorts from allplaces, getting right on my tittles it is really

think i preferred life before image search

 

Not sure these will help you but …

Very unusual looking. Interesting item. I've noticed a lot less decent stuff at my usual car boot. Had a good day today but previous two I've come away with nearly nothing. Maybe people are getting more aware of the value of things. Or maybe everyone is skint with high interest rates and inflation.

 

Looks like that page belongs to a photographer just posting samples of his work.
