Légende
Water Ewer for Rituals (Kundika) with Incised Parrot Design, 1100s. First developed as a form of metal ware, this distinctively shaped vessel is called a kundika in Sanskrit. With a spout on one side, this type of vessel is often used in Buddhist purification rituals. Unlike most existing examples that have an image of a willow tree, this ewer bears an image of flying parrots delicately incised on its surface.
