Hello, I wondered if anyone could tell me a bit about this , It appears to be very old and I can not find any hallmarks of any kind . Its very well decorated and stands about 6" high and 7" diameter , it looks like it was a hammered piece and and has 17 separate panels and flower vines and many different style of flowers. I have been trying to figure out more ,I thought perhaps A Chinese antique from the style and shape , Thanks if any response much appreciate ,
I love the rim being so straight and well defined. India I find was ripe with these hammered small pots which I had found mainly in Silver !~
thanks Yeah I thought perhaps India too. Im going to post a much larger one thats more of a caldron type thing .maybe you would know what that is , .Thanks
I really love this bowl, especially after reading it’s only 6x7”. So much detail in such a small space! And the piercings top and base seem to showcase the designs. There actually does seem to be writing of some sort on base, picture 3, lower right (and possibly lower left too, but I can’t make it out. Could just be random scratches or my eyes are seeing things. Lol. Good luck and thx for sharing.
