Vintage brass epns (german silver) solid weight pot

A vintage solid-weight pot combining brass construction with EPNS (Electro-Plated Nickel Silver) finish on its surface, reflecting both enduring metalwork and early plating techniques.

As a collectible, it represents heritage mixed-metal tableware reflecting historic plating craftsmanship and material quality.
