Antique Indian Hand-Engraved Silver Plate Temple Jar – 9″

£ 95.00

On offer is an exquisite antique Indian silver-plated temple jar, a beautifully hand-crafted example of traditional Indian metalwork. This piece is entirely hand-engraved, showcasing intricate patterns, detailed motifs, and fine craftsmanship characteristic of classic Indian decorative arts.

The jar is made from brass with a silver-plated finish, and stands at approximately 9 inches (23 cm) tall, including the lid and ornate finial. The decorative engraving covers the entire surface, including intricate geometric and floral motifs, and central cartouches. The handmade nature of this piece gives it a wonderfully rustic charm, with slight asymmetry adding authenticity to its character—it does not stand perfectly straight, which is typical of individually crafted items of this type.

Condition is good antique, with some expected wear to the silver plate, commensurate with age and use. These small areas of wear only enhance its aged appeal and highlight the underlying brass tones beneath.
