Also known under the Persian name aftabeh (), historically they were used in Asia primarily for washing oneself and hands, following the tradition of performing natural needs in the Islamic East. When they arrived to Russia from central Asia in 16th–17th centuries, their purpose changed and they had become a vessel for drinking and they started being made of less noble metals.
