Provenance: Christie's 22 April 1995, Lot 107/11.
Inscription: 'Nahhas' (a worker in brass or a coppersmith).
The above lot illustrates Morton's taste in collecting. These pieces were purchased separately but clearly are related in their almost identical form. In design, the heavy brass example blends both the large script of Golconda 16th and 17th Century vessels with an Ottoman style split-palmette.
