ANTIQUE #SA965545

Indian Decorated Metal Water Bottle Or Flask - 19th Century

£120    $156    €145
Here is a large metal flask with a cork stopper decorated all over with flowers and patterns in rich colours against a black background, executed in an attractive naive style.The bottle is made from metal sheets beaten together, which form a watertight bond.
 
The bottle stands 34cm tall with its wooden stopper in, and is 24cm wide and 17cm deep.
 
As displayed in the photographs, the bottle is very much in a ''used'' condition with the knocks and scrapes of well over a hundred years of love and wear, but personally I think this adds to its charm.
 
I am also selling a smaller bottle ( please see separate listing ), so should you wish to purchase both, I would definitely look to give a discount for the pair.
 
I offer free postage to the UK and can help organise quotes for shipping abroad.
 
Please don''t hesitate to get in touch if I can offer any further information of photographs.
