This water jar is about 60 years old which is still good for daily use but I keep it as a collection.This jar of water was bought by my grandmother during the dark period of my country's colonization by Japan.
This jar of water was once offered by a collector enthusiast for $500 but I have no desire to sell it for that much,because this is indeed my grandmother's legacy so even if I sell it I have to give a little money to my late grandmother and if it is worth it I think it is still lacking. This time in the collection community created by and his team, I am happy to be able to expose the collection story sharing to all my friends. Let's see how the design of this water jar looks like.
Made Of Iron And Copper
The whole of this water jar is made of iron and copper,the outside of the iron while on the inside is coated with copper so that it does not rust and brittle on the inside. The iron used is white iron so that it is not black and easier to paint for beauty,because in my opinion if ordinary iron is exposed to paint or the like it will quickly disappear but if the White Iron is a little difficult to disappear it can be said to be more permanent.
The inside of the water tpoles coated with copper I think it's very difficult in the manufacture,how not, because I think it's very difficult in a small jar of water the inside can be coated with copper while the 60s are still minimal to advanced technology.
My mother said This jar of water was bought by my grandmother in the period after the Japanese occupation of the Japanese emperors who visited and did business in my area but I did not know the price purchased at that time.
Japanese Emperor Hat Design
The design of this water jar I see like a Japanese Emperor's hat where in the head area is more prominent from the neck to the tip of the head,a kind of Bell that is used in Japanese temples. With this design if I use this jar of water to drink it will feel like the time of the konu Kingdom should the emperor drink.LOL
On the outside of the jar of water is also painted with a traditional Japanese house but has begun to disappear a little faded look.
Copper Water Cup
I feel that the jar of water that I have is a complete package because the small cup is still there and good,as I said If I use this jar to drink like the emperor who drinks again.
The whole cup is made with copper which is beautiful and durable,on the outside is also carved a little pattern of leaves but I do not know the type of this leaf.
The size of this cup is not big about 2 centi meters and the depth is also not in a kind of whiskey Cup in the bar. The weight is also not heavy, it is easy to hold by a 2-year-old child and if it does not break, it will break.
