Kashmiri Brass Cutwork Enameled Frame, Early 19th Century

About the Item

Crafted in the early 19th century, this Kashmiri brass cutwork enameled frame is a stunning example of the region's artistic prowess. The frame is made from high-quality brass, providing a durable and lustrous foundation for the intricate detailing that adorns its surface. The outer edges of the frame are adorned with meticulous cutwork, forming an elaborate lattice of fine brass strands. This cutwork features a delicate interplay of geometric patterns, floral motifs. The precision of the cutwork is a testament to the skill of Kashmiri metalworkers, who have mastered the art of creating intricate designs with meticulous detail. The brass frame is further enhanced by the addition of vibrant enamel work. The enameling is applied to selected areas of the frame, creating a striking contrast against the golden hue of the brass. The colors used in the enamel include deep blues reflecting the traditional Kashmiri color palette. Within the inner border of the frame, a finely engraved pattern continues the artistic narrative. The engraving may depict intricate floral designs, swirling vines, or other ornamental elements. This inner border frames the central space where a photograph, artwork, or mirror would be displayed. The central area of the frame is the focal point, where the cutwork and enamel details reach their zenith. This space is reserved for showcasing the intended content, and the surrounding brass and enamel work serve to highlight and enhance whatever is framed within. The frame, with its blend of brass, cutwork, and enamel, not only serves as a functional and protective casing but also stands as a work of art in its own right. It encapsulates the essence of Kashmiri craftsmanship during the early 19th century, marrying the beauty of brass with the vibrant allure of enameling in a piece that transcends mere functionality, embodying the artistic spirit of its time.

Located in Islamabad, PK

This exquisite piece of art seamlessly combines the intricate aesthetics of Mughal design with the skilled craftsmanship of Kashmiri artisans, resulting in a stunning and unique creation. The copper ewer takes the form of a bird, with its body forming the main body of the vessel and its neck serving as the spout. The bird's wings, tail feathers, and even subtle details like beak and eyes are meticulously rendered, showcasing the artisan's attention to detail.
