Rare Silver Ritual Bowl – Sukhothai Kingdom, 11th–13th Century

About the Item

A rare and refined silver bowl from the Sukhothai Kingdom (11th–13th century), likely used in a ritual context — either within a temple setting or as a treasured personal object belonging to an elite member of society. Discovered in a burial assemblage alongside bronze items, the bowl retains subtle traces of bronze oxidation on its surface, a quiet testament to its long interment and historical authenticity. These natural markings lend character and underscore its archaeological provenance. Weighing 170 grams and measuring 12.8 cm in diameter by 8 cm in height, the bowl is notable for its graceful proportions and minimalist elegance. Its unembellished form reflects the early sophistication of Thai metalwork, emphasizing material purity over ornamentation. A significant piece for collectors of early Southeast Asian art and antiquities, this silver vessel offers both aesthetic presence and historical depth.
