Lot 307:
A Collection of Middle Eastern Copper Alloy Metalware
Description
This collection comprises five ornamental metalware items, crafted from a copper alloy, likely brass. The group includes two tall, lidded vessels with pierced domed tops, one small open pot, one lidded box, and one ewer with a handle and spout. The decorative style is consistent across all pieces, featuring intricate repoussé and pierced work with dense arabesque and foliate motifs, indicative of Middle Eastern or Indian craftsmanship. The ewer, in particular, shows characteristics consistent with 19th-century Islamic Persian Qajar Dynasty or Indian Kashmir tinned copper pitchers. No legible text or discernible maker’s marks are visible on any of the items.
