Antique handmade Middle Eastern footed bowl made of tinned copper, hand engraved, typically dating from the 19th century.
Hand-hammered copper coated with a thin layer of tin (mes-kari), giving it a silvery-grey finish that wears gracefully over time. Built with a rounded, squat body resting on a prominent pedestal foot base.
Decorated with hand-chiselled geometric bands, zig-zags, and floral or abstract stamp motifs,
often historically referred to as a "Jam" or food vessel.
Shows a natural aged patina with extensive loss to its original interior/exterior tinning (the silvery coating applied over the copper base), which is very common for its age.
