Description:
Authentic hammered copper basin dating back to the first half of the last century, equipped with two elegant side loop handles.
This container belongs to the tradition of Italian rural daily life and was mainly used by women to transport water from the spring to their homes, in an era when many houses were not yet served by the public aqueduct.
Made entirely of copper, it features evident craftsmanship, with irregular surfaces and hammer marks that testify to its manual execution and prolonged use over time.
The item, as shown in the photos, retains period repairs, visible and consistent with its functional history: interventions that today represent an added value, as they tell of a now rare mentality, in which objects were not discarded but repaired and handed down.
These signs of time are not defects, but authentic traces of life lived, which increase the charm and authenticity of the artifact.
Ideal as a decorative element of great character, perfect for rustic or country environments but also as a collector's item for enthusiasts of traditional objects and copper craftsmanship.
An object that is not just furniture, but historical memory, concrete testimony of a past made of simplicity, resilience and respect for things.
Accompanied by Certificate of Authenticity.
