Vintage Mid-Century Indian Brutalist Chainmail Wrapped Cast Iron Gourd Vase/Bottle 1970's/ Mid Century

The 70s are back baby!

An exceptional curation piece for design spaces. This vintage Mid-Century Brutalist structural vessel features a substantial, heavy sand-cast iron body completely encased in a hand-tailored, tight-weave metal chainmail skin. Produced in India during the height of the late-20th-century global artisan export era, this Vessel bottle highlights raw textures, organic forms, and distinct industrial grit. The deep matte charcoal iron core contrasted against the silver-toned interlocking metallic black mesh creates an incredible play of shadow, light, and high-contrast texture. It is a brilliant, visually weighty sculptural accent designed to anchor console tables, rustic fireplace hearths, open shelving, or deep minimalist nooks. Perfect statemement piece for brutalist, Gothic, organic minimalist, industrial, Antiqe, Wabi Sabit inspired interiors.
