Tambe - Large patinated copper temple jar
Handmade
Antique
One-of-a-kind pieceThis impressive copper jar comes from India and was very probably used in a ritual setting or in a temple, given its imposing size and weight.

Its surface displays a rich old patina, the result of many years of use and devotion. The faint hammer marks and natural irregularities reflect the craftsmanship of its maker, while the darkened sheen underlines its age and authenticity.

More about how your order is prepared
Careful, reused packaging
Your parcel is prepared in our warehouse in France. As most of our pieces are one of a kind, the packaging has to be made to measure, which takes a little longer than for standard products. The item is protected and packed in a cardboard box for the safest possible shipping.
The little extra? We reuse packaging as much as possible to reduce our impact on the planet.
collection by the carrier
Once your order has been prepared, the carrier chosen at checkout is notified and your parcel is collected the next working day.
The carriers we use most often are Chronopost, Colissimo or UPS for home deliveries. For pickup point deliveries, we offer the Mondial Relay and Chrono Shop2Shop networks.
