I received this as a gift, with claims that it was a coffee maker. Is this true? What the fuck is this thing?
The person who have it to me bought it at goodwill and couldn't tell me anything beyond "I think it's a coffee maker!".

good job your friend didn't touch anything else at goodwill or you'd have never seen him again
unless he got it off somebody else and gave him an eternal reward

You have chosen...poorly
Gabriel Morris
Don't think it's a percolator, the base looks like it wouldn't heat properly.
Ethan Reyes
OP, can you post a pic of the "lid" hinged open and what it looks like inside there? Is there a screen or basket or anything like that in there?
Evan Taylor
Its for Turkish coffee.
William Cooper
it is a traditional dallah.

Neat. Serve some dank arabic coffee to your friends OP
Austin Walker
There's no screen. It's just a flip lid.
Doesn't it have the wrong spout? This was my first thought too, though.
Joshua Cook
Non functional ornament, or water pitcher based on dallah
If it was for Turkish coffee, it would need a base suitable for boiling on a stove for 10 mins
It would have an open beak like spout as well
If it was for tea, how would you clean the leaves out?
Jackson Green
It might be for watering flowers
Logan Richardson
bro thats a pipe my uncle has 1
Nathan Jenkins
It's purely decorative.
I've got a few non-functioning oil lamps made from that exact material with that exact shoddy construction and shoddy engraving, you're not going to be using it for anything other than collecting dust.
Jaxson Gonzalez
Looks like a strange jebena
Ryan Edwards
how much is it worth?
I'd say about one dallah
Brayden Murphy
It's just ornamental, OP.
It's still a cool find, just not a functional item. Find a good place to display it and enjoy.
Juan Stewart
Rub it and see if Alladin comes out
Beyond that, it's useless
Zachary Baker
Non functional ornament. My mom collects antiques and has several of these in our house
Daniel Williams
Just an ornamental watering can modeled after a Dallah. Sorry Bro, that base won't heat for shit.
Jordan Hernandez
Sure is samefag in here
It's used to brew tea OP
Zachary Hernandez
If it's a genie lamp, you can wish for a coffee maker.
Oliver Torres
I'm guessing you're a troll, as there is no way that design will make decent tea.
