Description
Bring a captivating piece of history into your home with this stunning set of three graduated vintage Indian water flasks (historically used as traveler canteens or moon bottles). Handcrafted in India, these unique vessels celebrate utilitarian artistry. They are constructed from rounded, dark-silver metallic bodies joined together by thick, decorative brass-brazed weld lines. This mixed-metal method produces a striking, industrial look highly reminiscent of the Japanese art of Kintsugi.
Historical Character & Condition:
- Artisanal Fabrication: Each bottle is formed by securing two domed metal discs together along a rugged brass solder line, highlighting the time-honored techniques of traditional Indian metalworkers.
- Preserved Details: The largest flask features an authentic, dark stopper plug nestled in the neck. The middle and smaller pieces feature open narrow necks, showcasing a dark, authentic patina on the interior.
- Surface Protection: The two larger flasks are fitted with green felt pads on the base to prevent scratching on delicate surfaces.
- Markings: The smallest flask features its original "Made in India" vintage foil sticker on the bottom.
Dimensions & Weights:
- Large Flask: 8" Height x 6" Width | Weight: 12 oz (Features permanent plug in the neck)
- Medium Flask: 6" Height x 4" Width | Weight: 6 oz (Open neck)
- Small Flask: 4.25" Height x 3" Width | Weight: 3.5 oz (Open neck)
