Beautiful decorative large vintage Indian craftsmanship hand-hammered metal water jug with wooden cork from the mid 20th century. This metal bulbous iron bottle has a great 'antique' finish due to age and use.

Great for decoration in any kind of interior style.

Look at its great shape and how the back and the front are welded on!

I can easily picture this in a conservatory, a garden or a patio, as is. Or without stopper, with large dried flowers on a robust and sturdy table in a hallway.

Originally it was used to collect the waters of the sacred rivers, the Ganges, the Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati.

But now this large jug is much more than just a water jug it is a large decorative statement furniture piece.
