Description from the seller

RIGHT
Splendid antique Indonesian brass bowl or dish, from Java. The bowl is decorated with traditional Wayang Kulit (shadow puppet) figures and a geometric or floral motif along the rim. This type of bowls, also known as bokor, were traditionally used in ceremonies or for storing ingredients for chewing betel nut. This bowl dates from the second half of the 19th century. The heavy brass and the hand-engraved or chased details—especially the Wayang figures depicting mythological characters—are characteristic of Javanese craftsmanship of that period.
