Anyone know the manufacturer of the lota used in this routine? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4GEwTr0T4Y&t=62s
I like the look and size. Joe

The shape is similar to an Ickle Pickle Aqua Vase (not to be confused with an Aqua Change Vase), but seems to be a little larger than their regular sized one. Maybe it is their regular sized one (it's obvious that it's not their small one). Maybe it's a different manufacturer.
When I googled, I did find a result that said there was a "giant" Ickle Pickle Aqua Vase at one time, but I don't see anything like that currently on the Ickle Pickle website. http://www.ebay.ie/itm/121994261597 http://www.icklepicklemagic.com/store/in......rch=aqua http://www.icklepicklemagic.com/store/in......rch=aqua Ickle Pickle Aqua Vases are sold on a variety of magic dealer websites. - Donald

I think it's the Aqua Vase from the original Rings N Things (c. 1980s).
Here is one for sale now. Good price, too. https://www.internationalmagicauction.co......n-things

Thank you both. This does seem to be an original Rings N Things item, I looked at the current offering from Ickle Pickle but it doesn't appear to look the same.

Michael's right, that is an outstanding price. The original RNT items have seen a dip in popularity at auction and through collectible dealers, but like anything this is cyclical and just means it's a great time to pick up some super high quality magic.
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

It is an RNT Lota. It would hold a six pack of pop (Mike used to tell use Beer though). Ickle Pickle was a copy of the RNT but did not have the finish of RNT. Go for the RNT. If Chmara still has it, get the brass finish as it is a unique look and Greg is a good to tell with and took care of his props.

Thanks everyone, I did end up getting a RNT lotta and it is perfect for the act.
