Two Bronze or Brass Lota, India 19th century or earlier

TWO BRONZE/BRASS LOTA, INDIA, 19TH CENTURY OR EARLIER.

These lota are so similar in size and shape that one could be forgiven for calling them a pair. They differ only in the placement and thickness of their bands. I have owned them for more years than I care to remember and have always admired their elegant simplicity. They are cast, quite heavy; and impossible to date accurately as the design probably dates back for hundreds of years. Probably from southern India; Kerala or Tamilnadu.

5.1/8 inches (15 cm) high. In perfect condition.

I am based in the United Kingdom so charges made to credit cards are in GBP ( British Pounds ) and your credit card issuer automatically converts the charge to the currency of your country. Payment may also be made by direct bank transfer in GBP. International Money Orders or Cashiers’ Checks in GBP are also accepted.
