This extraordinary antique padlock, a product of Indian artisanship, is a striking example of traditional craftsmanship. Fashioned from solid iron, it presents a perfectly globular form. Its unique aesthetic suggests it was individually shaped by a skilled artisan. The lock remains in a fully functional state and operates with its key. A deeply mellowed, oxidized surface covers the entire piece, lending it a profound historical presence. This impressive relic would make an excellent decorative object.
