Vintage Nupe Water Pot – 4.2

Behold the exquisite rarity of this Nupe water vessel, meticulously handcrafted by the skilled artisans of the Nupe people in Nigeria. Adorned with meticulously incised geometric designs and surface patterns, these functional pots once graced the interiors of Nupe houses, arranged on terracotta supports. The rounded base attests to their practical use, often carried gracefully on the head with the aid of cloth rings.
