a vintage or antique brass planter or jardinière, possibly an antique from the early 19th century. These items, which feature ornate lion-head handles and a footed design, were historically used for a variety of purposes.
Key Information
Material and Appearance: The item is made of brass, a durable alloy of copper and zinc, and features a hand-hammered or textured surface and a pedestal base. The handles often have an ornate design, in this case appearing to be lion heads with a hanging ring.
Original Purpose: Historically, similar brass pots were used for diverse functions, including:
Cooking: Larger, heavy-duty brass pots were used for cooking over an open flame or on a stovetop due to brass's excellent heat conductivity and retention properties.
Planters/Jardinieres: In the 19th and 20th centuries, many of these functional pieces were repurposed in Europe and North America as decorative planters or cachepots for plants, which remains a common use today.
