This remarkable vintage brass canister features detailed raised relief work of monkeys in a jungle setting, wrapped around the cylindrical body. The domed lid is topped with a charming sculptural finial of a mother monkey holding her baby. The container stands on three round ball feet, adding to its sturdy, ornamental charm.
Likely of Asian origin, this piece blends symbolism and artistry—monkeys often represent cleverness, mischief, or protection in Chinese and Indian culture. A striking decorative object for collectors of unique brassware, animal motifs, or global folk art.
