About this piece

A bowl on a block, and a lip that looks like it was turned by hand.

Metalworkers in Andhra Pradesh, Southeast India, made this seeder in brass in the 20th century. The record calls it a seeder, a small implement associated with agricultural work. A wide cup with a flared rim rises from a ringed neck, and the whole stands on a rectangular block with a hole at each end. Fine rings and an engraved panel decorate the front. The brass has darkened to olive-bronze, with golden flashes on the edges.

About 4 inches high and 5 wide. A curious little object that will be picked up by every visitor.
