Royal Solid Brass Niello Bowl on Pedestal with Lotus Lid
Take your decoration to the next level with this highly-collectible Royal Solid Brass Niello Bowl with Lotus Lid. Nielloware has been a status symbol of royalty in many countries in Southeast Asia including Thailand, Myanmar, and Cambodia. The process of creating niello objects is a very labor-intensive and elaborate one. Typically, precious metals such as gold, silver, or brass are incised to create meaning, often culturally, depictions or patterns on an object. Cambodian silversmiths are considered among the most skilled experts at chasing, repoussé, niello, enameling, and gilding such objects.
Particularly, this intricately-engraved brass bowl with a lotus-shaped lid features engraved flora and foliate decoration. Every Royal Solid Brass Niello Bowl with Lotus Lid requires complicated engraving by hand for 6 months before birthing a highly detailed nielloware. It is such an exceptional example of Southeast Asian niello works, making it a perfect heirloom for your beloved family.
