When the going gets tough, the tough buy samovars

Day two of Jury Duty went by with a new twist: Today I got added to a jury.

As you doubtless know, I can't talk about it until it's over, so I won't. But there were certain elements of it that I found very sad, so to cheer me up, I went out to the Pioneer Square Antique Mall and bought me a new (to me) Samovar.

It was designed by Ben Siebel for Iroquis China Company in the "Blue Diamond" informal pattern. It is really rather deluxe, and make a nice contrast to the other Ben Siebel Samover I bought (known around these parts as the "Reno Samovar")

Anyway, here it is. Mull over it for a while while I go back to deliberating.
