Antique Copper and Brass Vessel with Bird Spout, 1800s

Antique European Copper Decorative Vessels

A sculptural 19th-century copper vessel featuring a beautifully cast brass zoomorphic spout, original arched brass handle, and a warm, timeworn patina typical of hand-forged metalwork from the 1800s. This piece works as a decorative accent for collectors of antique European objects, adding character and authenticity to any interior.

Sculptural antique craftsmanship

This vessel showcases hand-hammered copper, expressive surface textures, and traces of historical repairs that highlight its age and artisanal origins. The brass spout shaped like an animal head adds a unique sculptural touch, making the piece stand out in both rustic and refined interiors.

Warm patina and decorative function

With its rich oxidation, verdigris accents, and warm reddish tones, the vessel brings a sense of European farmstead charm to a console, kitchen setting, or decorative vignette. The brass footed base gives it elegant proportion and stability.
