Large Vintage Rustic Hammered Turkish Ibrik Water Pitcher Jug Boho Vase NO LID

  

Rustic but wonderful, large vintage water pitcher or jug from Turkey. Middle Eastern Aftabeh (a jug made for hand washing or cleansing). Approx L 9" x W 8-1/2" x H 14-1/2 (to top of spout). Has nice weight to it; over 3-1/2 lbs.

Copper, brass, and silver in color. I believe it is made from hammered copper, which was once tinned copper and still bears the silver remnants. In fair condition w/ lots of patina, signs of wear and use; lid is missing, a few cracks, scratches, dents, etc.

Sits a little crooked, and the inside also has signs of use. I feel all of the use gives it character and tells a story about this piece and would add a nice touch to any room and make a wonderful vase or addition to a rustic or bohemian decor. Please see all photos and zoom in for further description and condition.
