Antique Turkish Hannun Bathhouse Articulated Fish Bowl Rare

Unavailable
 RARE and unique vintage 8"  brass  bowl featuring a cute rotating fish attached to a rod at the center.  . The fish has a red tongue. Bowl is hand etched and is ornate  .   There is oxidation on the inside  and great patina on the outside.      Would polish up nicely .  Surrounding the fish mounting is inscribed  a name or lettering  that says   "ERZINCAN H".     These are know as Hannun Trick Bath House Bowl  from Turkey.  Water comes out of a facet or spigot  hitting the top gadget on the fish ( that is  depicting a bird)  thus making the fish spine around.   This would be entertaining  and mesmerizing to watch especially for children
