Up for auction is a beautiful vintage mid-century modern copper and brass long-spout watering can. This elegant piece features a classic spherical/ball-shaped body crafted from warm copper, beautifully complemented by a solid brass loop handle and an elongated, slender spout designed for precision indoor plant care. Its silhouette is highly characteristic of premium mid-century European designs, closely resembling the iconic work of German makers like VEB Kunstschmiede Neuruppin (formerly Emil Funk) from the 1950s–1970s. Dimensions: • Total Length: Approximately 14.5" (from the tip of the spout to the outer edge of the handle) • Body Diameter: Approximately 5.5" Condition Report: This piece is in good vintage condition with a wonderful, authentic aged patina. • Surface: Shows normal signs of age and use, including minor oxidation, surface scuffs, and small spots of tarnish that add to its historical character. • Interior: Features minor green verdigris tracking consistent with holding water over decades. • Structure: The long spout and handle remain firmly attached and structurally sound.
