    Very nice, Chris. It is Persian, copper, signed on the rim.
    Could you take a picture of what looks like a number after the signature?

    Thanks. It looked like a number before, but it isn't, it is the last part of the signature.
    I think it is late Qajar dynasty, the first quarter of the 20th century.

    I don't now the name, I'd call it a lidded vase or flask. 45 aussie dollars is a bargain.
