19th Century Persian Copper Bowl

About the Item

19th Century Persian Copper Bowl. Intricate hand-hammered geometric decoration with a splayed foot and wonderful patination. An elegant 19th-century Persian copper bowl, made circa 1850, featuring intricate hand-engraved motifs encircling its exterior in decorative bands. The bowl rests on a slightly flared foot and is meticulously detailed with repeating stylized medallions and geometric forms, characteristic of Persian design traditions during the Qajar period. The hammered copper surface has a warm, timeworn patina, with darkened recesses enhancing the incised patterns. The interior exhibits a delicate etched rosette and natural signs of age and use, further underscoring its authenticity. Both sculptural and utilitarian, this piece was likely used for ceremonial or domestic purposes and now serves beautifully as a decorative vessel or historical accent.

A richly detailed 19th-century Tibetan ritual vessel, hand-forged from copper and embellished with applied repousse and engraved brass medallions, geometric plaques, and symbolic mounts.
