Brass Lota - 5.5 x 3.75 Inches | Chombu/ Brass Kalash Pot for Pooja
A brass lota chombu / brass kalash / jaladhari is a traditional Indian container, often used in Hindu rituals and ceremonies to hold pooja or Abhishekam water.
The Kalash is commonly known as Purna Kalasha, Purna-Kumbha, and Purna Ghata. As per Rig Veda, Purna Kalash represents abundance and a life source. Devotees fill the Kalash with holy water and place a coconut on top of it during Pujas. The head of the coconut faces the sky, and they keep mango leaves, sometimes betel vines, dipped in the water. Some might fill the vessel with coins, gems, gold, or grains as well. It is believed that the water and other elements in the Kalash symbolize the prosperity of our Earth, including vegetation and minerals.

They eventually obtained Amrit in a Kalash during the procedure. Because the Kalash possessed Amritam, it therefore came to symbolize immortality.
