Hand-Painted Rajasthani Metal Pot Set of 3 – Golden Ochre Mughal Garden & Bird Motifs

A Garden on a Pot.

A set of three hand-painted Rajasthani metal pots in graduated sizes, all sharing the same wide flattened globe form with a wide open rim. The ground is a warm golden-ochre, deeply painted in the Mughal garden manuscript tradition. The decoration is zoned into clear horizontal registers. The wide upper shoulder band in warm peach-gold carries dense naturalistic garden painting — large blue, red and orange flowers, sweeping green leaf sprays, small birds and butterflies scattered throughout the composition. A narrow blue dot-work and scallop separator band divides this from the lower body zone, which carries a continuous cracked-earth or cloud-scroll pattern in a darker gold-ochre with floral and vine overlay. A further fine scrolling band runs at the rim. Small iron ring handles on each shoulder. Dark interior.

Display all three grouped as a centrepiece, line them along a console or sideboard, or use the largest as a standalone decorative object.
