Antique Asian copper bucket "tsurube" /20th century/hanging flower vase

About the Item

This is believed to be a bronze "tsurube" (water bucket) made in Japan or East Asia. It was likely used to draw water from wells. The base shows dents, possibly from repeated impacts, but these dents add to its character and beauty. The handle has a distinctive shape, and the connection points are secured with three copper fittings, which also serve as attractive design elements. There is a repaired spot on the bottom where a hole was filled. This is marked with a red circle in the detailed images. There were no signs of water leakage during testing. The item is in good condition, with no major damage. It can be displayed by hanging from the included chain (178 cm in length) or placed on a table to hold flowers, creating a charming centerpiece. This piece allows you to fully appreciate the patina and beauty of bronze. Highly recommended. Weight: Tsurube: 2.45 kg Chain: 0.55 kg
