Our red copper model has a swollen belly decorated with engraved plants and has suffered visible damage on one side, a brass handle allows the grip. The basin in very good condition, presents a slight accident on the edge.
Widely decorated with foliage, it has its grid and its soap holder which receives the underside of the ibriq.
The price is corresponding to the state of the ibriq, but if you wish, you can take only the basin at the price of 490 € .
Ibrīq, or also Ibrik (إبريق) in Arabic, often means a jug with a handle . During Islamic ritual ablutions before prayer, the water taken from the ibrīq is poured over the hands and received in a basin.
Simple water jugs were often made of clay, while water jugs in oriental courts for prayer were often very elegantly decorated copper jugs.
