Fantastic 1889 GAR Nat. Presentation Coffee Urn

SOLD!!!

This is one of the most unique GAR collectable pieces I have ever found. This great piece is a presentation piece presented at the 1889 Grand Army of the Republic National Encampment in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This presentation piece is over 18 inches tall and approximately 10 3/4 inches at the base. Engraved in the side of the urn is "Mr. & Mrs. E.R. Stillman with the compiments of his comrades of the 85th N.Y. who were so generously entertained by them at the 23rd National Encampment - Milwaukee 1889". I believe this piece has triple plated silver. There is a ceramic liner inside the urn that is cracked and the portion that came out the spout is broken off. This is only on the liner. There is no damage to the silver urn. The coffee pot sits on the base and moves so you can pour coffee without holding the pot. Mr. E.R. Stillman was Sergent Major Stillman during the Civil War. The 85th New York Infantry fought on the Peninsula during 1862. The regiment was moved to North Carolina and most of the 85th New York was captured April 20, 1864 at Plymouth, North Carolina. Sgt.Major Stillman was captured and paroled on May 10, 1864. Stillman mustered out on June 7, 1865. I can't say enought about this piece. It is wonderful! If you are a Wisconsin collector you don't need to miss this piece.
