Hello Beth,
I have a very similar samovar that my grandmother brought from Belarus and I have photos of it. As you described yours, I pictured mine, with all the accolades stamped on the front of it. I had never looked carefully at them but the earliest is from 1870 and there are German and Italian awards as well (I believe) My family was from Bienshinkovichi near Vitebsk. How about yours? I would be happy to share my photos with you. Judith
