I have one just like it. Not sure if the measurements are the same though. I have no clue who or when it was made.

Unknown maker as far as I know, but a neat piece.

    Not sure of a maker, but a neat old Kettle. The ears like that were on pieces right through the early 1900's by some makers, but unknown if they were still bottom gating (catalogs typically did not show the bottom) . Some foundries bottom gated right to the 1930's . A neat Kettle none the less.
