Description
| *Nepalese Heartscape This water bottle has a shape unique to Nepal. It is known by several names, including Ghalcha, Kalash, Gaagro, and Gaagri. They are used in ceremonies to offer water to statues of deities and at weddings, etc. They are much more than mere water jugs, and can be said to be an inseparable part of Nepalese life and culture. In everyday life, the jugs are used to welcome guests by arranging flowers at the entrance. This custom can be seen all over Nepal, and a large one is also displayed at Tribhuvan International Airport. This is a large size, which can be seen at restaurant entrances. The solid material and round shape are very lovely. We recommend this item for interior decoration. Since it is made in the traditional way, water may seep out from the joints. In that case, please fill the holes by pouring melted wax inside. Also, since the product is directly imported from Nepal, there may be dents and other defects. |

ネパール独特の形状をした水瓶です。呼び方は複数あり、Ghalcha、Kalash、Gaagro、Gaagriなどの名称で親しまれています。神像に水を捧げる儀式に用いられたり、結婚式などの場面で使用されたりするなど、単なる水差しの枠を大きくこえ、ネパールの生活・文化文脈と切って離すことのできない心の原風景といって差し支えないでしょう。
日常では、花を活けてお客様を歓迎するため玄関口などに飾って使用します。この風習はネパール全土で見られ、トリブバン国際空港にも大型のものが飾られています。
こちらはレストランの入口などでも見られるような立派なラージサイズ。しっかりした素材感に丸っこい形状がなんとも愛らしいですね。インテリアとしてもおすすめの一品です。
昔ながらの製法で作られているため、継ぎ目部分から水が染み出してきてしまう場合があります。その場合は溶かした蝋を内側に注ぐ形で穴を埋めてください。また、ネパールからの直輸入品のため凹みなどがございます。
