Product Description
Crafted in 1979, this premium antique brass kalsi (water pot) comes complete with a dedicated copper elevated base stand and an intricately engraved brass cover lid. Designed in the traditional Indian pot silhouette with defined concentric grooves around the shoulder and body, it offers a generous 10-liter capacity for water storage and ritualistic use. Cast in solid, heavy-gauge brass paired with a contrasting copper stand, this ensemble weighs 2.830 kg and exhibits a soft golden sheen complemented by authentic aged patina developed over decades. Traditionally used in rural and royal households for storing fresh drinking water, as well as during sacred ceremonies, housewarmings (Griha Pravesh), and temple rituals.
Benefits of solid brass construction include natural antimicrobial water storage properties, high temperature resistance, structural durability, and long-lasting spiritual heritage value. Today, this 2.830 kg collectible antique brass kalsi set serves as a functional traditional water dispenser, an elegant floor centerpiece, a sacred altar pot, or a rustic heritage interior accent.
