| Description |
English: An Imperial Pilgrim’s Water Flask. Turkey, 19th century. Leather with metal-thread embroidery; turned wooden stopper. Height: 45.5cm. The flask (matara) was most probably used to collect water from Zamzam – the well inside the Meccan sanctuary – to take back to Sultan 'Abdulhamid II (reg. 1876–1909) in Istanbul. It is one of a small group, the earliest of which was sent by the Ottoman Sultan Murad III (reg. 1574–1595) to the Austrian Emperor Rudolf II in 1582. |
