The bowl showcases an exuberantly rendered repoussé and chased border densely populated with naturalistic pinecones, acanthus leaves, and scrolling foliate motifs in high relief, a hallmark of Tiffany's late Victorian and Gilded Age decorative silver production. The pierced and undulating rim frames a smooth, polished well that brilliantly reflects light. The base features a domed foot ring providing stability. A distinguished collector's piece from one of America's most celebrated silver houses. Size: 9 x 9 x 3". Apprx Weight: 391g
