    Urli
     
    • Printer-friendly version

    This is a large cast brass cooking pot from Southern India known locally as an Urli. Pots were placed directly on a fire and large meals were prepared for special events. Wooden poles were inserted into the metal loops on the sides of the Urlis to carry the heavy pots. Nowadays because of its beautiful form it's used as a decorative element in households – it occupies a place of interest in the living room or at the entrance to a home and is filled with fragrant, colourful fresh flowers or is filled with water in which floating candles or flowers are dispersed aesthetically.
