  • Period16th century
  • SizeH 41.3 cm (16 in) x W 41.3 cm (16 in) x D 3.8 cm (1 in)

This German Nuremberg brass alms dish dates from the sixteenth century, specifically between 1500 and 1550. The piece is fashioned from brass with a polished golden finish and darker patinated recessed areas. A large central raised boss comprising twelve floral gadroons forms the focal point, surrounded by concentric raised circular mouldings and an inner band of gothic script. The wide flat rim displays stamped fleur-de-lys decoration, bordered by an outer rolled edge. Natural wear is visible through surface darkening, minor scratches, and uneven coloration across the metal surface. The dish measures 41.3 cm high by 41.3 cm wide and 3.8 cm deep, providing a substantial circular profile. In a contemporary home setting, this historic item makes a striking wall display plate mounted on a timber-panelled dining room wall, or serves as a decorative centerpiece displayed flat on a hardwood console table in a hallway.
