About the Item
This exquisite 19th-century Chinese slim brass water vessel stands as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of its era. Its elongated cylindrical form, gracefully arched handle, and subtle patina evoke a sense of timeless elegance.
The vessel’s slender silhouette, meticulously shaped by skilled hands, hints at both practicality and aesthetic sensibility. Its base curves gently, anchoring it with stability, while the handle extends upward—a functional yet beautifully designed element.
