Om Copper Offering Bowl 3"

I ordered four of these bowls. Because the online picture looked so pretty, I was very excited and I couldn't wait for them to arrive. I was really disappointed when I opened the package and saw that only two out of the four bowls were new with the "New Age" stickers still in place at the bottom. These two new bowls looked shiny and very nice indeed. However, the other two looked very old and were definitely used. They no longer had the stickers at the bottom like the other two. They looked brown and black, and scratched up on the inside from much use. I didn't want to deal with all the hassles of returning them, so I put on rubber gloves and polished them instead. I used metal polish " Brasso" and "Bar Keepers Friend". After about 45 minutes, I managed to get them to look fairly okay. I wasn't happy about that at all!

Yes, it is the same as picture. I just hope it is real metal. ;-) Time will let me know.

Purchased this as a gift for a family member. It's a little small (though that's really my error for not really thinking what 3" actually is), however it fits the alter it's being used in really well and the family member likes it. Seems to be holding up pretty well and is very pretty.

I have been looking for this offering bowl to go with a dragon bowl for alter offerings!! I was so happy to find this matching bowl, my alter is now complete!! It's wonderful!! Praise Buddha!!

Perfect little addition to my meditation alter.

It came already use with black stuff inside it and the smell of incense. Also the outside looks rubbed off or worn and dented.

This quickly became one of my favorite things! It's so beautiful and eye catching! I use it to hold special given to me by a special friend and it sits on my coffee table right next to a copper platter. Very pretty!

It fits in the palm of your hand. It's perfect for small offerings suck as stones and herbs. If you have a large offering or alter search for large offering bowls. But I love mine and for my purpose its perfect.
