Lota
Wiki: A lota is a type of spouted globular, small-sized vessel made of brass, copper or plastic used in the Indian subcontinent since at least the 2nd millennium BC.
According to the ancient Indian/Hindu-origin traditional medicine system of ayurveda, drinking water stored in the copper lota has health and nutritional benefits.
