19th C Eastern Anatolian probably from Mardin, a tinned copper bathing bowl. A great item for a dignitary or important person because of the fine hand-forged workmanship on both sides. Eternity motif is very attractively drawn. It is the sign of long life, when it is on such a piece, it means good “Long healthy life”  wishes for the user. In great condition with a protected tin layer over the copper.
