Description
Stands on three rounded feet and is distinguished by its elegant pear-shaped body, tapering neck, and bold spout. The hinged lid, still intact, is joined to a high arched handle terminating in an avian head motif. The surface retains areas of original red patination, contrasting with the golden undertones of the bronze beneath. Around the shoulder, a band of incised inscriptions in Kufic script enhances its decorative appeal, while vertical fluting ornaments the lower body.
H: 16.5cm
