These old Indian grain measures have been upcycled and embellished with ornate brass. Made from jackfruit wood and from South India, grain measures like these were used in markets for measuring wheat, corn, rice, and pulses. In the old days, the Indian measures were Seers & Pattis.

Pieces like this have been used every day, handed down generations by families in India, and developed a rich warm patina. 

These make fabulous planters, decorative features, or waste paper bins.
