About the Item

A beautifully shaped hand-forged copper cauldron displaying a warm, time-softened surface and sculptural silhouette. The vessel features a broad, gently flared body with a subtle pouring lip and two generously curved forged handles, each attached with classic riveted copper mounts. Its form is both functional and sculptural—showing the unmistakable evidence of hand-hammered shaping and years of historic use. The interior presents a naturally aged surface with traces of oxidation characteristic of early copper. The exterior carries deep, varied patination ranging from chestnut to earthen umber, layered with darkened firemarks and subtle traces of verdigris—an authentically aged finish consistent with 19th-century utilitarian copperware.
