This is a stunning Vintage Hand-Hammered Copper Cachepot (or large planter) hailing from India, dating to the late 20th century (c. 1970s-1980s). This generously sized piece perfectly captures the enduring appeal of artisan-crafted metalware, offering a beautiful mix of rustic charm and functional elegance.
The body features a highly-textured, all-over dimpled/hammered finish, a traditional technique that lends depth and character. The top rim is reinforced, and it is fitted with two decorative brass ring handles.
Its condition is wonderfully authentic, showcasing a desirable, rich natural patina that includes varied tones of brown, gold, and copper, with small spots of verdigris (blue/green oxidation). This unpolished finish is highly sought after by collectors and interior designers.
Ideal for use as:
"• An oversized Planter or Cachepot for indoor foliage.
"• A stately Ice Bucket or beverage cooler (line with a plastic bag to preserve interior finish).
"• A decorative storage pail for magazines or kindling.
