Vintage Kohl/Kumkum/Ittar Holder
This stunning and highly exceptional vintage statuette in brass is a true work of art that captures the essence of luxury and opulence from a bygone era. It depicts a regal and elegant lady seated on an elephant, which is perched on a Kurma or a tortoise, exuding a sense of grandeur and magnificence.
What makes this piece even more unique is that each element of the statuette was used to hold the three most important cosmetic items in the vintage world - kohl, kumkum, and ittar. The applicators for these items are, unfortunately, missing from the piece, but their absence does not diminish the overall appeal of the statue.
It is easy to imagine this exquisite piece being carried by royalty on their journeys or displayed in the boudoir. The intricate details and the exceptional craftsmanship that went into creating this piece are truly awe-inspiring. Given that the piece has been made by hollow casting technique, makes it a very rare piece of Indian cultural history. The brass has developed a charming patina over time, adding to its allure and making it an even more desirable collectible.
