Eloquants Damascened Vases Islam Orientalism Mesopotamia Antique Ottoman
interesting copper or bronze vases with a coppery appearance, damasked with silver friezes, evoking ancient Babylon, with its deities, its mythological or totemic animals ... sovereigns ... warriors ... servants ... priests ... ... these 2 vases, with different decorations, tell multiple stories or legends of the Middle East (Iraq-Syria).
It is not therefore a question of a pair, but of 2 vases of the same invoice. One measures 17.2 cm X 7 cm and the other 17 cm X 6.5 cm .... slight, very slight deformations of the metal around the collar ... They must be cleaned. I bought them completely blackened ... they still are ... I just roughly cleaned them with a nylon brush to reveal the patterns that we could only guess. Nice condition of use and nice testimony of a people who evoke their origins and their history through their crafts. Sold as is.
thank you for your visit
