Description: Nicely Designed Brass Bowl with Middle Eastern Engravings Approximate dimensions: Diameter - 118mm (4.65") Height - 50mm (1.97") Condition: Fine with marks indicative of both age and usage. Naturally tarnished, but this has been left intact for authenticity. Can be polished according to preference. Description: This brass bowl is a good example of metalwork likely originating from the Middle East or Central Asia, regions renowned for their intricate brassware traditions. Its warm golden-yellow hue highlights the detailed engravings, which are prominently featured on the inner surface. The geometric and arabesque motifs around the rim and base, along with the interlocking central design, reflect the strong influence of Islamic art. The rim is smooth and rounded, with no sharp edges, making it practical for use. While the outer surface is more subdued in its decoration, featuring only a few simple motifs just below the rim, the overall craftsmanship is evident in its balanced design. It was potentially used for ceremonial or decorative purposes, though it could easily serve as a functional item today. This versatile piece could be repurposed as a decorative display item, a small fruit or nut dish, or even as a unique storage vessel for small items.
