This rosewater vessel (golab posh) is decorated with a bird and flower motif.  Adds a decorative touch to your living area!  Screw-cap minimizes spillage.

Up until the Qajar era, the kings were awakened in the morning and servants would splash rosewater on his feet.  It is difficult to believe, but I have heard that in the time of the last Shah, the Qajar descendants, who were known as Shazdeh (a corruption of Shahzadeh) were still awakened in the morning in the same fashion. But don't quote me!

8" (20 cm) tall; 2.25" (6 cm) base. Goldtone.
