This unusual Indo Persian Samovar is plated in tin and intricately carved in a geometric floral design and a silver wash which is mostly worn revealing the copper below. It measures 16" to the top of the coal chamber and 7" in diameter across the belly, with a spread of 9" from the dragon handle to the spout etched with a fish. By the mineral deposits within, it appears to have been well used. The lid is missing. The overall condition is good with a dent at the fretwork base. It weighs 7 pounds before packing.

This unusual Indo Persian Samovar is plated in tin and intricately carved in a scrolly floral design with a niello finish. It has rings to tie straps to the back of a camel or horse. It measures 17" to the top of the coal chamber and 8" in diameter across the belly and at the fretwork base and weighs 7 pounds before packing. Unfortunately, this samowar was damaged in transit from a dealer in Israel, I'm not in the repair business, so this pot is being offered at a very attractive price.

1920's Syrian Lamp made from a large candle holder. A piece this size would take a family several months to make. Intricate etched and carved detail throughout. One family member would etch the design onto the formed metal cylinder. It would then be handed off to the next family member to punch out the design with small chisels. Then another family member would polish down the rough edges and finally, it would be assembled by the finisher. It measures 28" to the top of the light socket by 7" across at the base, and weighs 4.5 pounds before packing. A harp in your preferred size will be provided at the time of sale. New old stock rayon cord and Bakelite look plugs are also available at cost.
