    Description

    This is a unique rose water/ holy water sprinkler from Egypt.  It is hand crafted 900 silver and decorated with flowers and birds. The birds may be doves and one sits at the tip of the bottle/sprinkler.   It comes apart with the top screwing on to add the water.
    Size:  7.5" high and approx. 2.75" diameter.
    162.70 grams of 900 silver.
    Normal patina from age, one small dent if the bottom of the design.
    It may have come from Saad of Egypt, one of the most famous old/still standing silversmiths in Cairo.  Most of my other Egyptian silver came from them.
