Description

A small, intricately designed silver bowl, likely of Indian origin, possibly dating back to the British Raj period (mid-19th to early 20th century). The bowl features a scalloped rim and repoussé work, a metalworking technique where designs are raised from the reverse side. The patterns include repeating motifs of foliage and possibly flowers, common in Indian silverwork of this era. The silver appears to be of high purity, which is typical for pieces from this region and time. 

Indian silver from this period was often crafted for both the local market and British administrators and travelers, reflecting a blend of European and Indian styles. The intricate detailing and craftsmanship suggest that this bowl could be a valuable antique
there are no hallmarks, but the piece tests as silver.
