18 th /19 th Century Hand HammeredMediterranean Round Jar This is a wonderful hand hammered and crafted water storage vessel from the southern Mediterranean . Dates from the middle 18 th century to the early 19 th century. Very unusual round shape due to the difficulty of making this shape (I have never seen a round vessel this well made). The body was made in four pieces. The two bottom pieces are hand hammered strips made circular with overlapping vertical braized seams and then braized with horizontal seams to the one piece top shoulder and base. The neck was made separately and braized to the body and has a flanged rim. Exquisite aged patina with a number of braized repairs from centuries of use. Dimensions: Height 5 inches (12.5 cm), Diameter (widest point) 5 3/8 inches (13.5 cm), Foot Diameter 4 1/16 inches (10.4 cm), Rim Diameter 1 7/8 inches (4.7 cm). If you have any questions or require additional information please call me at . In addition to me this piece has been verified by Fred Gumbart and David Fredericks. Mr. Fred Gumbart is the owner/appraiser of Arizona Galleries ). He specializes (by appointment only) in consultations, and he is an official, licensed, and accredited appraiser of Fine Period Antiques, Fine Art, Ethnographic Art, Pre-Columbian Art and the Asian Arts. Fred is a lifelong, serious collector of art, antiques and artifacts, and has been seen on the PBS History Detectives TV Show concerning antiques and artifacts. Mr. David Fredericks is curator and authenticator of Antiquities Plus in Tucson , Arizona ). His knowledge of Asian art, particularly jades, is equal to any I have seen. His use of microscopic analysis and sequential attribute confirmation in verifying a pieces life history and condition is unique. He is impeccable and at times brutally honest. Refunds will be made only upon receipt by me (within 14 days of buyer's receipt of the item), of a written verification from a major University Department Head or Major Museum Curator from a recognized institution in the appropriate field. Note: For International sales, buyer is responsible for all import duty taxes.
