This is my exotic opium holder/carrier. A cousin got it for us from Indonesia. I like to believe that it was used in the ancient times by some Raja (and by that I mean a king and not just some random guy named Raja) to smuggle opium to his mistress who was the court dancer. And then maybe they fell in love and the rules of the kingdom did not allow it and they both died of an opium overdose. Short & Intense.(Fantasy apart….. it probably is from some local flea market…… just like in the Friends Pottery Barn episode).
