Exceptionally crafted in brass, this vintage piece has a circular form with a beautiful dome-shaped lid. The handle atop is fixed to a gorgeous brass motif and is riveted into the top of the piece.

The domed lid is also engraved in beautiful concentric patterns that add to the aesthetic appeal of the piece! A rich patina is seen dispersed over the surface, adding to its vintage charm!
