Tiny vintage brass kohl bottle, also known as a surmadani, a holder for surma (kajal) which is an eyeliner from galena powder. Surma is a popular makeup style in Africa, middle east and south east Asia. Surma is used as a protection against the sun, eyelash mascara and in some cultures as a protection against evil eye.

This holder is completely empty, it would make a unique perfume bottle as well.

Including the ornamental screw cap surmadani stands 3 1/2'' tall (9 cm)

"Made in" and "Pakistan" originally embossed on two sides of the cap are hardly readable because of abrasion.

Brass shows some tarnish with scuffs. Bottle needs cleaning and would benefit from polishing. Surmadani does not have tears, holes, cracks or broken parts.
