Indian Rose Water Sprinkler for Puja

Tall, narrow, and built to scatter perfume on ceremony.

This rose water sprinkler was made in India in silver in the 19th or 20th century. Sprinklers of this form are commonly used to scent guests or sprinkle rose water during puja and other occasions. A long slender neck rises from a round bulb decorated with repousse floral work, and a small flared top caps the neck. A wide round foot keeps it stable. The silver has a soft gray patina, brighter along the raised designs.

About nine inches tall. It makes a dining room look like it has plans.
