This vintage South Indian grain measure, crafted from jackfruit wood, has been beautifully upcycled with ornate brass embellishments. Traditionally, such vessels were used in village markets to measure wheat, rice, corn, and pulses. In earlier times, Indian grain was measured using traditional units known as seers and pattis.
The piece is decorated with brass floral motifs and borders, transforming this once utilitarian market tool into a striking decorative feature. With its rich patina and ornate finish, it works equally well today as a unique planter, a stylish wastepaper bin, or a statement decorative accent.
