Size is 10" (25.5mm) to the top of the bowl and 14" (35.5mm) to the top of the cover not including the spike. Heavy brass construction and nicely decorated overall. Probably Saudi I think.

Salaams khanjar1, It is about 3 feet tall including the spike. Mine is Omani probably Nizwa.

Was in Dubai recently and saw these monsters in an antique shop. Obviously not suitable for actual use as the weight with liquid in them would be impossible to lift. Very ornate and nicely made pots just the same and would make a real converstaion piece sitting in the living room!

Hi Stu

WOW!!!! Those are monsters alright. LOL While not in my line of collecting, I do find them interesting, and certainly very decorative. Nice collection you have.
These remind me of a Lebanese restaurant I frequent here. For desert, I always order a shot of Arak on the rocks, and a Turkish coffee. I remember my late wife use to ask me: "How do you drink that coffee ? It's thick as paint"
LOL!!
