This is a traditional Moroccan "Beldi" teapot, a classic piece designed specifically for brewing and pouring traditional Moroccan mint tea. The Design: It features a round, wide-bellied body decorated with a hand-engraved geometric medallion band, a hinged lid with an ornamental finial, a curved handle, and a distinctive curved spout designed to pour tea smoothly from high above the glass to create a frothy head. The interior shows the distinct golden/yellow hue of brass or copper beneath the surface plating. It is made of silver-plated brass. This composition provides a heavy, durable build that can safely withstand direct heat if used on a stovetop. This piece comes from Morocco, most likely crafted by traditional metal artisans in the historic medinas of Fez or Marrakech. ​On the bottom, you can clearly see an artisan maker's stamp featuring five stars arranged in an arc above a prominent crown emblem. ​Just below the crown, the word "ROYAL" is stamped, followed by "FES" (partially faint but consistent with vintage regional stamps). Fes is globally renowned for producing some of the highest-quality, heaviest traditional Moroccan brass-lined silverware. Vintage (Circa 1970s–1990s): The stamp style ("ROYAL FES" accompanied by a crown and stars), the precise casting of the legs and handle and the natural oxidation and light wear on the interior brass basin point to this being an authentic mid-to-late 20th-century vintage item rather than a brand-new tourist souvenir or a modern reproduction. teapot is in very good vintage condition, no silver loss that I can see, Some interior wear with use.
