    Description

    ITEM DESCRIPTION:
    This is a bit outside of my normal area of sales. I'm very ill with a terminal neurological disorder - 1st biopsy is OK - that aggravates an injury, so I need money. I like to know what I sell; I was burned badly in the past selling a few items I could not ID. I know this is old, handmade, antique, and copper. It really stood out. Approx. 8 7/8" tall, the entire item appears hand made, from the round handles to the vase itself. Or is it an amphora? The design goes down one side in a gold color, really unusual, at the top there is one dot by the line; at the bottom, 3. The line is clearly meant to not be perfect, wide in some spots and not in others. Weighs 15.3 ounces. Very solid copper, not thin. I get the impression it may not be of US origin. Probably have this listed for more than it is worth - can always take a "best offer" for less.
    I literally see metalware every day, living by several thrift stores and going to estate sales. This seems really different to me. They check nothing that takes any effort; I've seen things go for much less than they are worth.
    ---> Item Details and Specifics are also above description<---
    Please feel free to make an offer, or ask about multiple item discounts.
    Due to injury, and biopsy need, I am selling everything I own, as well as things I come across - estate sales & major retail closeouts. I have an extensive history as a collector of art, scientific items, computers, and bookselling.
