- Collector's notes: "The Bedouin brews the coffee in large pots and served it in smaller polished brass pots which have a long spout. The pot is always held in the left hand and the cups in the right. Pouring becomes an art, as the cups and pot are separated by as much as eighteen inches during the pouring process"
- Brass. Hourglass shaped, slightly wider at bottom. Hinged lid, long spout, and long, curved handle. Lid has pointed top and 4 incised lines around the shoulder.
