They are decorative things in the right setting.
I don't actually have any Dallah but I do have a nice ewer- aftabe and some other bits and bobs.

Salaams Atlantia. Im in Oman. One of my main dealers for coffee pot making is in Syria... The styles are remarkably similar across the entire bedouin artefact range.

Ah ~ very nice ewer you show perhaps from the Deccan ~ for washing hands or as a drinking water jug...Very nice. I have some of those... It is interesting a subject from the ethnographic view that these artefacts display similar decoration to weaponry ... etc
