Description

Finely reticulated with bands of both graduated honeycomb and geometric shapes the ewer is enhanced with "embroidered" raised paste gilding, etched gilding to the foot rim and flat gilding. Additional piercing to the foot rim area and handles along with miniature garlands of "seed pearls" to the handles.
