19th Century Middle Eastern Islamic Engraved Tinned Copper Jug Pitcher Antique

A Middle Eastern probably Persian Qajar but possibly Ottoman tinned copper vessel dating from the 19th century.

This piece features a sturdy, applied handle and a rounded body with flaring rim. The surface is extensively hand-engraved with bands of stylized design, including traditional Islamic geometric and foliate motifs. The copper base is visible in areas where the tin has worn but is mainly intact, contributing to a desirable, rustic antique patina consistent with age and use.
