Old Egyptisn style vase

Brass vase with black velvety surface, decorated by the elements of different colour metal gold leaf or maybe gold plate on brass, cannot see exactly (if plate then the surface must have been etched first, as the gilded elements appear slightly "embossed"). To my eye it is not "komai" technique. It has a horizontal split along the soldering in the bottom part (you can see on one of the photos) so it cannot hold water. Also magnifier reveals minor losses on gold surface. If there is a buyer for it then it is better to do it through eBay/PayPal system unlesstha buyer has an agent in NZ.
