Catalogue Description:
One bronze bowl, hemispheric in shape. The interior is plain, but the exterior is decorated with a series of horizontal panels, each slightly concave. At the exterior base a 14 petal rosette has been executed in raised relief. Condition: Excellent. A greenish lacquer covers the surface. This was found to be shellac. A small hole exists in the direct center of the relief rosette on the bottom which could have been the point of attachment to the lathe.
