Exquisite Pair of Hand-Engraved Persian Footed Bowls

Description

This outstanding matching pair of antique-style footed bowls showcases the absolute pinnacle of traditional Ghalam-Zani (Persian hand-engraving). Originating from the historic artistic hub of Isfahan, each piece is masterfully hand-chased onto a solid copper base.
The exterior walls are meticulously divided into elegant, repeating cartouche panels, each densely filled with varied miniature arabesque and floral motifs. The true hallmark of luxury craftsmanship is revealed when looking inside, where a highly complex, twelve-pointed central star mandala radiates outward to cover the entire interior surface. The deep, oxidized patina highlights the incredible depth and contrast of the metalwork, making this pair a remarkable testament to Persian ancestry and artistic heritage.
