Antique Indo-Persian Tinned Copper Lidded Jar Middle Eastern Islamic Art
Located in Moreno Valley, CA
Antique Indo-Persian Tinned Copper Jar Hand-Engraved Islamic Metalwork, c. 1900 A striking example of early 20th-century Indo-Persian artistry, this antique lidded jar is handcrafted from heavy tinned copper in the traditional Ghalamzani style—an ancient Persian technique of fine metal engraving. The bulbous body, slender neck, and flared lid are richly decorated with intricate floral, geometric, and arabesque motifs, along with medallions featuring musicians and couples, evoking Mughal and Islamic influences. The surface is intricately decorated with detailed floral, geometric, and calligraphic motifs, reflecting deep influences from Mughal design and Islamic decorative arts. The embossed and incised patterns shimmer over the darkened silver-toned tinned finish, catching the light with elegant shadows and reflections. The dark patina enhances the silver-toned tin finish, lending depth and contrast to the detailed repoussé and chased designs. A rare and refined collector’s piece, this jar captures the elegance and spiritual symbolism of Islamic decorative arts. Design Highlights: * Material: Tinned copper with blackened silver finish * Technique: Hand-engraved and repoussé (Ghalamzani / Qalamzani) * Motifs: Intricate floral vines, arabesques, Islamic geometry, and mythological scenes. * Base: Beautifully detailed brass with Mughal-style engravings Dimensions: * Total Height (with lid): approx. 18.5" * Width: approx. 7.5" * Lid Height: approx. 9" * Mouth Opening: approx. 2.75" This antique Persian vessel...

Anglo-Indian Vizagapatam Bombay Mughal Style Footed Box With Bone Overlay
Located in Moreno Valley, CA
Nice and unusual Indian Mughal style large decorative box, filigree and carved horn. Anglo-Indian footed domed box with exceptional engraved details throughout with filigree and carved veneered bone plaques with arabesque carving. Vizagapatam, late 19th century. History of the Anglo-Indian Boxes Beginning in the early part of the 18th century, Indian artisans made what came to be known as Anglo-Indian boxes for the English residents living in India, who eventually brought or sent them back to England. At the beginning of the 19th century, India began exporting these boxes commercially, although not in any significant numbers until the 1850s. People valued them so highly that manufacturers of tins copied the designs on them in the late 19th and early 20th century. Anglo-Indian boxes fall into four groups: Rosewood or ebony boxes inlaid; sandalwood boxes veneered; sandalwood boxes covered with Sadeli mosaic; and carved boxes often combined with Sadeli mosaic/ The first two categories came from Vizagapatam in East India while the last two came from Bombay in West India. English traders discovered the rich woods and intricate workmanship of Indian artisans, so colonial government officials began to recognize the work of the Indian artists and craftsmen as a source for satisfying the need for furniture and boxes, which would both serve to enhance English households in India. This gave rise to the cabinetmaking workshops in Vizagapatam between Calcutta and Madras. Craftsmen made the first boxes to be decorated with Sadeli mosaic of rosewood or ebony, incised to give further definition to the decoration, directly inlaid into the wood. The shape of the early boxes was either sloping at the front with a flatter section at the back, reminiscent of English writing slopes, or rectangular. Artisans inlaid the borders with stylized floral scrolls and the centers with a single floral motif following a circular or oval symmetrical or asymmetrical pattern. The edging was ornamental and protective, both helped protect the end grain against the weather. Made in Vizagapatam, situated on the south east coast of India, near Madras These exotic boxes...
