Thanks for posting all these pics Tony,

I think your collie might be a borzoi, though.

Your welcome, I thought it was Lassie.

The red USSR mark is more desirable (as it dates the item to pre-1991) than the modern blue Made in Russia - if you find a red Made in Russia, you have a nice early piece.

good article on the various marks here. I have sold some pieces with the domestic quality marks, they are very different, and do iincrease the value of the piece.

Your Samovar has 2nd quality domestic marks TC, according to that link I gave above. If you like that kind of thing, it is a nice piece!

I love samovars, they fascinate me. I remember my late uncle bringing one back years ago from somewhere behind the Iron Curtain - he was an engineer and used to work & travel a lot in the old Soviet/Eastern European countries. Much more romantic than a Burco boiler huh?
