This pot had no discrning decorations which may suggest that the emphasis was more on the functional shape of the object rather than on the decorative pattern.The most common decorations on Malay brassware tend to be floral and vegetation within geometric or calligraphic motifs. These motifs were either engraved or embossed onto the object.
