AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Indonesia, probably Java or Sumatra

Decorated brass vessel, possibly associated with the preparation or storage of betel (sirih). Made from worked sheet brass and richly decorated with repoussé, punched and chased floral and geometric motifs. The underside is finished with a circular foot and central floral rosette. Beautiful old brown-golden patina with traces of oxidation and wear from use. Exact regional attribution and original function uncertain.

Seller's Story

my wife Paula van den Berg and I, Koos Tuber, both anthropologists, traveling a lot through Papua New Guinea and West Papua (formerly Irian Jaya), Solomon Islands and Vanuatu (formerly New Hebrides). We love local tribal arts, we collected thousands and thousands of artifacts, all authentic, sometimes old, sometimes more recently but mainly used objects in local traditional cultures. We are happy to give more detailed information about the artifacts we sell here on Catawiki. Please feel free to contact us.
