<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> </em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> A most unusual covered cannister of solid brass with
extraordinary hand beaten repousse on all sides and on top of
the lid. This Middle-Eastern example of superb, decorative
metalwork is outstanding. <p>CONDITION: The condition of
this cannister is remarkably good, considering its age and how it
must have been used. There is a 1" tear on the lip of the lid,
but it lies flat and has no sharp edges. The lid comes off easily,
and while there are some tiny dents, the shape and
beauty of the piece are not affected at all. </td></tr><tr> <td> </td></tr><tr> <td>Reference #: DA455</td></tr><tr><td>Condition:Good.
