19th Century handcrafted storage jar was once a common feature of a well stocked home.
A cloth would line the interior and homemade edibles would be stored inside. I have seen
one used for cookies!
This jar has a wonderful warm copper patina. It is gently warn and it shows it was used and
cleaned regularly. There is a wonderful Mogul leaf and tendril pattern on the bottom.
I saw the same pattern painted on the interior wall of the Lahore Fort. May have been from
the Singh Era in Lahore.
I bought it in 1975 in Lahore from a reputable source.

There are some old solder marks. Top does not quite fit right. Easy to fix with hand. Interior intact. It seems it was never heated, just used for storage. less
