    Vintage identified as Tibetan riveted 13" tall Copper Pitcher with a unique spade designed handle, the handle is mounted like a hinge with iron pins, the hand hammered spade appears at the top and bottom of the handle. It isn't marked but is very well made. Thanks in advance.

    How do you know it's from Taxco?

    If this is by a Taxco maker, the maker had been studying Tibetan pitchers.

    Exactly. The repoussé motifs are Asian, not Latin American.

    The shape and construction, with those bands, are Tibetan (or related Himalayan) too.
