Antique Burmese Silver Bowl

Published August 22nd, 2016 by Unknown

Over the weekend we acquired this exquisitely detailed antique Burmese silver bowl. It is striking at how deep the repousse renderings are, making the depicting nearly three dimensional, allowing the story told to nearly come alive.

Finished with foliage designs along the top and bottom of the scens and rets on three feet. Tested silver.
