Description from the seller
A special brass wine jug is a noble piece of artisanal tradition, the style of which combines classic functionality with rich, folk-inspired decoration.
The surface of the object is polished brass, which is made unique by hand-engraved grape patterns and indigo motifs. The decoration technique is based on the dual tone of the material: the silvery shine of the engraved parts creates a subtle contrast with the warm, golden glow of the jug's body.
The design of the jug follows the lines of the traditional "ibrik", but has a widened base adapted to serving wine and an elegant, curved handle. The hinged lid deserves special attention, with its decorative knob and jagged edge reminiscent of the world of medieval goldsmithing. The "ALBANIA 013/1" marking on the bottom not only confirms the place of origin, but also serves as a unique identifier, highlighting the collector's value of the piece.
The object weighs 521 grams, which indicates the use of solid, quality materials. Its total height, measured to the knob of the lid, is approximately 21 centimeters, and the diameter of the base is around 13.5 centimeters. The generous 1.5 liter capacity allows it to stand its ground not only as a decorative object, but also as a server for a table party.
This jug is the perfect choice for those who like objects with a patina, historical atmosphere, and are happy to smuggle a little Mediterranean elegance to the festive table or into the decoration of the home.
