On offer is a captivating and boldly decorated vintage vase, standing at 5 inches tall, crafted from richly patinated brass — or possibly bronze, judging by the darker core visible inside. Encircling the bulbous body are hand-engraved nude tribal-style figures, each rendered with stylized faces, ornamentation, and dot-work details in rhythmic repetition.

A piece full of visual intrigue, cultural expression, and aged beauty, this vessel carries both artistic and anthropological interest. Whether used as a sculptural accent, collector’s item, or conversation starter, it brings with it a sense of story and soul.

📌 Key Features:

✅ Material: Brass with inner tone suggesting possible bronze (patina or over-cleaned restoration)

✅ Decorative band of nude figures – primitive, symbolic linework across full circumference

✅ Dimensions: Approx. 5″ tall

✅ Condition: Good vintage condition with age-consistent wear and verdigris; interior shows deep natural patina
