    Posted inquiry into this urn/vase some time ago but am still trying to figure out what this item is, when and where it was made.
    I live in NYC and I found this in the trash so I have no way of asking previous owner . And ihave no idea what it is..
    it’s some kind of metal , tin perhaps? But looks like it might’ve been painted at one point.
    It’s hand-made and looks like it was made to be water-tight, even thiugh the inside looks rusted Antique ? Asian or from Middle East?
    Approx 17” tall
    11” wide in middle
    Approx 4” diameter at top, 5” diameter base
    Dragons are 7” long, round decoration in middle is approx 2.5” diameter
    Any input greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help

      Maybe a bed warmer. Can a handle be attached to it ? Neil
