Samovar or percolator is 15 1/2 inches tall. This piece is identified as a percolator in the Domitz book "Paden City Glass" This name coupled with the lack of filtering or heating equipment puzzles moderen day users. A forum member said that while researching in the Cambridge museum, he found notes referencing whiskey percolators. Samovars were often used for spirits, so perhaps percolators are as well.
