A sign
Most of the people around the world sees here a copper goose neck water kettle or a teapot. But for us Finns it is a coffee pot and a sign of a coffee or café. Literally for centuries Finns used to brew coffee by boiling water in such kettles, and then mix the grounds directly into the kettle, and also serve the brew from it.
Copper was a cheap and easy to mold metal, to make pots out of it. But because copper is toxic, especially when heated, the pots had to be covered with something less toxic. Tin was then used to coat the pot inside. There were then special professions of copper smiths to repair and tinkers to re-tin such pots.
Copper pots of course soon became manufactured in factories. And the rim around the kettle seen in the picture is for heating the water on a wood-burning stove. On old stoves there were removable "burner rings". One could then place the kettle over the "hole" and expose the bottom of the kettle directly for the heats of flames.
