Part of Uptown Auctions October-November Online Auction (timed auction by Uptown Online Auctions)

High bid $53.00

Status: Sold

Authentic piece of Middle Eastern artisan metalwork crafted from thick-gauge copper with a traditional tin wash lining and riveted side handles. This piece features a distinct two-tier conical shape tapering to a wide rolled rim. Designed with a curved/conical base, it was traditionally made to sit in sand or a hearth fire pit, or to serve as an alembic still dome. Because of this rounded base, it does not sit flat on flat surfaces and is ideal for display on a ring stand, pedestal holder, or tilted as a floor display. Key Details Material: Solid copper with original tin wash lining; heavy-duty riveted handles. Dimensions: Approx. 17" H x 17" W (handle-to-handle). Condition: Good vintage condition with authentic patina, surface wear, few light dings, and natural oxidation to the tin finish. Handles are sturdy and intact. Base is intentionally rounded/conical.
