    Hi! I found this copper tea kettle recently at a flea market in rural Alabama. It's in pretty rough shape, but I love its character and I would love to know more about it (its age/origin) if possible. It is hammered and is dovetailed on the bottom (though it is very hard to see as the bottom is very blackened). I am unable to find indications of a seam on the body, but the spout has a seam. The bottom is not flat, but slightly rounded. The handle and finial on the lid are a white metal. The height (base to finial) is approximately 6 inches and the kettle diameter is approximately 6 inches as well. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you!
