Ewer (briq) from the 18th century Tunis

This visual presents an 18th century “Ewer” (briq) from Tunis, a refined container intended for serving liquids or ablutions. Fashioned with a characteristic long pouring spout, this piece illustrates the elegance of copperwork and its central role in Tunisian hospitality rituals. It embodies the art of living in large city residences, where each everyday object had to combine functionality and aesthetic research, thus reflecting the social and cultural prestige of the time.
