Antique collectible Islamic art hand made tinned copper lidded bowl from The Median Empire in Persia. We acquired this astounding historical piece from the collector's estate in Beverly Hills. It's shaping is that of a mini cauldron or bowl with an accompanied lid. The lid can be removed completely or attached via a hinge and latch. The top of the lid has a handle. The entire piece is hand crafted with amazing engraved geometric designs and detail! An excellent example of copper work, which will show well in any fine Islamic art collection. The previous owner had it archeologically marked letting us know it's origins are "Median Empire" "Persia". It's condition in amazing for it's age!
About The Median Empire: The Medes were an ancient Iranian people who spoke the Median language and who inhabited an area known as Media between western and northern Iran. Late 9th to early 7th centuries BC, the region of Media was bounded by the Zagros Mountains to its west, to its south by the Garrin Mountain in Lorestan Province, to its northwest by the Qaflankuh Mountains in Zanjan Province, and to its east by the Dasht-e Kavir desert. Its neighbors were the kingdoms of Gizilbunda and Mannea in the northwest, and Ellipi and Elam in the south. In the 8th century BC, Media's tribes came together to form the Median Kingdom, which became a Neo-Assyrian vassal. Between 616 and 609 BC, King Cyaxares (624–585 BC) allied with King Nabopolassar of the Neo-Babylonian Empire and destroyed the Neo-Assyrian Empire, after which the Median Empire stretched across the Iranian Plateau as far as Anatolia. Its precise geographical extent remains unknown. A few archaeological sites (discovered in the "Median triangle" in western Iran) and textual sources (from contemporary Assyrians and also ancient Greeks in later centuries) provide a brief documentation of the history and culture of the Median state. Apart from a few personal names, the language of the Medes is unknown. The Medes had an ancient Iranian religion (a form of pre-Zoroastrian Mazdaism or Mithra worshipping) with a priesthood named as "Magi". Later, during the reigns of the last Median kings, the reforms of Zoroaster spread into western Iran.
