This antique Indian brass vessel, traditionally known as a lota, boasts a timeless, rounded shape and a rich, aged patina. Originally crafted to store and transport water while keeping it cool. Brass and copper were popular choices for water vessels in India due to their antimicrobial properties. These metals were believed to purify water and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria, making them ideal for storing drinking water.
This versatile piece now makes a stunning decorative accent. Its authentic aged brass finish adds a touch of exotic charm to any interior.
