This piece features engraved floral and vine patterns, red and turquoise enamel-style accents, and a central peacock motif framed within the body of the vessel.

The vase has a tall cylindrical form set on a stepped pedestal base, giving it a strong decorative presence while still feeling elegant and refined. It is also a notably substantial piece, made of heavy brass and weighing an impressive 2 lbs 14 oz. The weight gives it a quality feel and makes it especially suited for display on a mantel, entry table, bookshelf, or console.

The combination of warm brass, intricate etched detailing, and colorful painted or enamel-style accents is characteristic of Indian decorative brassware, often made for export in the mid to late 20th century. It works beautifully in bohemian, eclectic, maximalist, traditional, and globally inspired interiors.

Best used as a decorative vessel rather than for fresh flowers unless a liner is added. It would also style beautifully with dried branches, feathers, or simply displayed on its own. See less
