Item Details, Condition & Measurements
An especially interesting antique brass gulab pash, or rose water sprinkler, measuring approximately 10" tall x 3" maximum diameter.
This traditional vessel features a rounded reservoir richly decorated with embossed floral and foliate motifs, a pedestal base and a tall slender removable sprinkler stem. Gulab pash vessels were historically used to dispense rose water and other scented waters, including for ceremonies and traditions of hospitality.
Of particular interest is the marked underside, which bears a prominent crown emblem accompanied by additional worn script or characters. The precise maker or workshop has not been identified, and no unsupported attribution is being made.
The sprinkler consists of two pieces. The long stem unscrews from the reservoir for filling and is present with this example.
Estimated Circa: 1880–1920
Maker: Unknown
Origin: Likely Indian / South Asian or Indo-Persian tradition
Material: Brass
Height: Approximately 10"
Maximum Diameter: Approximately 3"
This piece has not been aggressively polished. Antique brass naturally develops tarnish, patina, age spots and surface variation, characteristics often appreciated as part of an older object's history.
Its tall silhouette, detailed metalwork and intriguing marked base make this an attractive piece for a mantel, console, bookcase or collection of antique brass and historic decorative vessels. Pasted text
