Samovars (4)
I believe the answer is:
urns
'samovars' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for urns that I've seen before include "Large pots for tea" , "Funereal vases" , "Vaselike vessels on pedestals" , "Tall vases" , "Large vases or pots" .)
