AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Portuguese silver fruit bowl, finished in Porto (Porto Coroa), oval in shape with a wide rim. The edge and interior display hand-engraved and chased decoration, composed of undulating motifs and stylized foliage, enhanced by a subtle dotted texture between the designs, which gives the piece depth and dynamism.

The smooth, polished background creates contrast and enhances the natural shine of the silver, highlighting the artisanal craftsmanship.

Produced between the late 19th and early 20th centuries (c. 1880–1930), it represents a classic example of Porto jewellery, elegant and timeless.
