I don't know anything about brass & copper as I deal in paper items, but I was bored and googled "Binanderie" and got nothing. A closer look at your pic revealed that the first letter appears to be a "D" and googling "Dinanderie" gets plenty of links about Belgian brass and copper, so that would certainly appear to be the correct spelling. As far as the "Hettlot", there was no luck there, but a closer look makes it seem like there are at least 2 letters before the "E".

Great ewer (pitcher). Could the bottom word be Miettlach? Is and/or was Belgium ever a part of Germany?
There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
