About this piece
Fluted neck, circles on the plinth, patina like a well-used coin.
This seeder was made in brass in Andhra Pradesh, Southeast India, in the 19th or 20th century. Small brass tools like this one are commonly linked with farming and household work, though the record gives only the name. A shallow, flared cup sits on a neck of fine vertical flutes, which rests on a blocky base pierced at each end. Two small circles are engraved on the front panel. The surface is a dusky, dark bronze with warm brown shadows.
About 4 inches tall and 6 wide. Heavy for its size, and better for it.
