Scalloped Brass Decorative Bowl
Germany, c. 1920s
About This Piece
This substantial brass bowl features a softly scalloped rim with stepped detailing, drawing on Baroque-revival forms popular in early 20th-century decorative metalware. Produced in Germany during the 1920s, the piece reflects the period’s appreciation for historic silhouettes rendered through industrial techniques.
The bowl has a pleasing weight and presence, with warm brass tones developed through years of use. Its generous 25 cm diameter makes it well suited as a decorative centrepiece, catch-all, or sculptural object within the home. Surface variation and patina lend depth and character without ornamentation.
