ABOUT THE COPPER TEA KETTLE
In this video I will be restoring a copper tea kettle that has been sitting in a barn with a leaky roof longer than I've been alive. I bought this kettle at an estate sale in eastern Idaho, I was immediately awestruck at the thick crystalline green patina it developed. The previous owner was in her late 80's and had unfortunately just passed from covid-19. Her family was selling all of her possession's and that's how I was able to stumble across this beautiful forgotten treasure. I offered her family $10 for it and took it back home with me.
After doing some research on the internet I was able to find out that this tea kettle was manufactured by a company called "Baker Hart & Stuart" who made copper and porcelain cookware and went out of business in the early 1980s.

ABOUT THE RESTORATION
This was my first official restoration ever. The disassembly went along pretty
smoothly, until I noticed exactly how bad the condition of this kettle actually was. The rust pits were a real challenge to sand down, it took over two days to get it perfectly smooth. There were also way more dents and dings than I could see with the patina still attached. After I sand blasted the nuts that hold the handle on I realized that I had to learn how to copper plate quick haha. Overall I'm really proud of the way this restoration turned out considering its initial state. I hope that you and all of the people who watched were entertained.
