A traditional Indian urli bowl elevated on sculpted elephant legs — not a decorative concept, but a solid cast brass object that weighs 550g and earns its place on any surface it occupies. The urli is a vessel form used in Indian homes for centuries — for water and floating flowers, for fruit, for presence. This version places it on cast elephant bases that carry their own symbolic weight: strength, good fortune, the auspicious beginning. Hand-cast by artisans in Maharashtra. One piece. What You're Getting Solid cast brass — 550g. Urli bowl and elephant base cast together, not assembled from plated parts. 280mm diameter × 110mm height — table-sized. Works on coffee tables, dining tables and sideboards. Elephant base — sculpted legs with animal, geometric and floral detailing. Made in Maharashtra — directly sourced from artisan workshops. Use: Floating candles, flowers, fruit, keys, or pure display. Stable due to the cast elephant base. Is $199.95 the right price?

This brass bowl is the intersection of two ancient Indian art forms: brass etching and miniature painting. The etched surface catches light differently from a plain bowl — there is texture before the paint even starts. The hand-painted floral motifs sit on top, inspired by Mughal miniature and temple traditions. The scalloped rim gives it a finished edge that reads as quality from across the room. 246g, 190mm across — a bowl scaled for side tables, shelves and dressing tables. One piece.
