A62
Large Copper Water Pot Arabia-19th c.

This is a large (16" diameter; 17" high) solid copper pot probably used to carry water from a well to the tent or hut.  Amazingly, Arab women could fill these with water and balance them on their heads as they walked home. Found in Southern Oman near Salalah.

Featured Sale Price: $185
