Product Description
Crafted in 1973, this premium set of 3 antique brass Seer measuring cups showcases authentic historic Indian volumetric metalwork. The nested set includes three distinct graduated sizes (1/16 Seer, 1/2 Seer, and 1 Seer capacity), each featuring thick cylindrical walls, reinforced upper and lower rim bands, and official government verification stamps/engravings along the upper body. Cast in solid, heavy-gauge brass, this vintage set weighs a combined 816 grams and displays a warm golden metallic tone softened by an authentic aged patina developed over decades. Traditionally used in Indian grain markets, households, and grocery stores as standardized measuring vessels for rice, pulses, oil, and spices prior to the widespread adoption of modern metric scales.
Benefits of solid heavy-gauge brass construction include high structural integrity, corrosion resistance, pest safety, and long-lasting durability. Today, this 816-gram collectible antique brass Seer set serves as a unique rustic kitchen storage container set, table decor piece, or heritage collection highlight.
