AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fascinating lot consisting of three elements of ornamental metallurgical art and service, characterized by rich artisanal work in repoussé, chasing and engraving. The set combines the geometric elegance of Islamic art with the figurative storytelling of Persian tradition. The lot includes:
Large oval serving tray (brass): It features a richly shaped, embossed rim with relief volutes, two prominent decorated handles, and a base entirely engraved with Arabesque floral and vegetal motifs.
Geometric circular plate (brass): Decorated with a complex and sharp geometric motif of an interwoven star, clearly Moorish/Islamic-inspired.
Figurative circular plate (bronze-browned copper): Fine artisanal repoussé workmanship (Qalam Zani style). It presents a central scene with historical figures in ceremonial attire inspired by the Persian imperial era (Persepolis), framed by a double floral decorative band.
Dimensions (cm): 55 x 5 x 32
29 x 1.5 x 29
33 x 1 x 33
