A rare Indian silver water vessel, 18th century
Silver. The round, openwork base in the form of foliage with a broad, flaring rim. Bellied walls, the vessel opening up the middle. Four bowls on the inside (five including the base). The neck embellished with stylised lotus blossoms in relief. Curved handle, terminating in two swan's heads. The underside and the inner bowls stamped with an unknown
mark. Unmarked. Height 25 cm (including handle) and 23 cm (inner receptacle with handle), total weight 1856.6 g. The vessel was probably used as a water container for the puja ritual, a daily devotional homage that is one of the most important parts of the religious routine in Hinduism.
A superb collector's item.
