Description
Bought this vase at a garage sale. It's a little over a foot high and I am not sure how much it weighs. It has intricate markings.. Vines and flowers and is really quite beautiful. As far as I can tell it is brass but some spots have a green- blue oxidizer ion which makes me wo set if there is copper content. It has a marking on the bottom that reads "INDIA 1033 M" which looks like it was scratched in. I have no other information about it. Was going to attempt to polish it but read that you should not polish or take the tarnish of antique brass or copper?

Bought at a garage sale. The people that had the garage sale were neighbours of mine and after the wife passed he was selling everything. He said years ago they had an antique store and he believes that's where it came from.
