A tall, cylindrical copper vessel flares at the top into a flat, narrow rim. Mottled patterns of dark brown and green spots mark the warm reddish-brown surface. Hand-formed and slightly uneven, the exterior reveals a textured patina. Inside the rim, a small vertical metal strip joins a seam. The vessel stands vertically, displaying the muted sheen of aged metal across its simple, functional form.
