This nineteenth-century Burmese footed bowl originates from the Shan District of Myanmar. The piece is formed in silver with a polished finish and a compressed circular shape resting on three rounded feet. The exterior displays dense repousse decoration in high relief, featuring forest hunting scenes with mythological figures, animals, and trees among scrollwork borders and foliage. Measuring 10 cm high by 18.5 cm wide and 18.5 cm deep, this decorative bowl serves as a striking display item. It works well placed on a sideboard top in a living room, dining room, or hallway to hold small items or function as a standalone sculptural object.

FAQs

Burmese repousse silver refers to traditional metalwork crafted in Myanmar, characterised by high-relief decorative scenes hammered from the reverse side of the vessel, often depicting traditional folklore or mythological narratives.

Silversmiths formed these bowls by shaping silver sheets into vessel forms before executing the repousse technique from the interior and chasing fine details onto the exterior surface, using pitch filling to support the metal shape during carving.

Authentic 19th-century examples typically display three-dimensional relief carving, high silver purity without standard European hallmarks, and continuous narrative friezes framed by floral or foliate borders.

Display the bowl as a standalone accent on a sideboard, console table, or shelf, allowing its detailed metallic surface to contrast against natural timber, stone, or painted backgrounds.

Clean the surface gently with a soft cloth and non-abrasive silver polish, taking care to avoid excessive rubbing inside deep relief areas to preserve the natural oxidised depth.
