How dual pricing works: If a buyer hits Buy Now, the auction closes and current bidders receive an automatic notification with the option to top the Buy-Now price next time. The seller of this lot has chosen to keep Buy Now active throughout — some lots disable Buy Now after the first bid (you'll see "Buy Now closed" on the card).
Solid rosewood case, professionally restored 2024
Original 8-day mechanical movement, recently serviced
A vintage hand-formed copper jug, featuring a wide flared spout, rounded belly, and curved handle. The design blends utility with rustic charm, typical of handcrafted metalware produced for both decorative and practical household use in the mid-20th century.
The jug’s warm reddish tone and natural oxidation spots give it an authentic aged appearance. Its sturdy form and functional handle suggest it was once used for water, milk, or floral arrangements  now ideally suited as a decorative accent, vase, or collectible copperware piece.
Condition:
Good vintage condition with visible patina, small oxidation marks, and light surface wear consistent with age. Structurally sound with no cracks or major dents.
