I recently purchased this incredible bowl from my local thrift shop. I would love to know anything about it. It has a number, a name and 925 on the bottom, but, I can't make out the name.
Thanks.

Absolutely beautiful. What is size and what would be your guesstimate on the name (maybe a better photo will help potential identifiers.) Plan to keep watching this one to see if you get more info on this piece. Good eye / good find.
Thanks!
I don't have it in front of me, but I think it's approx. 10" diameter (not including heads) and 7" high.
The signature appears to have been struck more than once - making it almost impossible to read. It's very frustrating :)
I love it no matter what - but it would be nice to know its origin.
Thanks again.
Quite a beautiful bowl. Stunning work.
