A spirit kettle is a teapot or kettle that sits upon a stand and has a burner beneath it. The burner usually burned alcohol, hence the "spirit" in it's name. This was a popular Victorian and Edwardian accessory. It allowed one to move the tea meal to just about anywhere, and one did not have to send the help to refresh the hot water. Most spirit kettles were made of sturdy materials such as silver plate and brass. They were usually ornate, with scrollwork and filigree, meant to compliment the rest of the silver or tea accessories.
With the advent of light stovetop tea kettles and electric kettles, the spirit kettle fell by the wayside, and are now considered collectible antiques.
