These vessels, known historically as \u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\"güğums,\"\u003c\/span\u003e were staples of domestic life across the Ottoman Empire from the 18th to the early 20th century. Used daily to carry and store water from communal fountains or rivers, their durable, thick copper construction also allowed them to be placed directly over open flames to heat water for household chores, tea, or coffee. This piece showcases exceptional handcrafted technique; skilled coppersmiths manually hammered flat copper sheets over shaped anvils, joined the sections with traditional interlocking brazed seams, and lined the interior with molten tin. This unique historical piece would complement a modern interior, offering a striking rustic accent or a unique flower vase.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe dimensions are as follows: H: 29cm - W: 21cm - L: 21cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eFree Shipping with orders over £35 for UK mainland \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThank you for looking and please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-999f2797-7fff-a6aa-7f58-166c7aaa4bc8\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"yhAwj\"\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Apeman Interiors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56410766410107,"sku":"ITEM-3101","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/3215\/5254\/files\/antique-ottoman-turkish-hand-hammered-copper-water-jug-riveted-handle-apeman-interiors_6.jpg?v=1789658401","url":"https:\/\/apemaninteriors.co.uk\/products\/antique-turkish-ottoman-copper-water-jug","provider":"Apeman Interiors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
