Presented is a spectacular silver bowl hand made in Vienna Austria in 1840. As you can see, the bowl is a large, flared rectangle with bold, hand-chased flowers in high relief decorating each of the four corners. You should see the quality of craftsmanship in this piece, not only on the decorated top, but also in the beautifully polished and sealed applied edge all around its underside.
The hallmark and assay mark for Vienna, Austria are stamped underneath one corner, as we show in our photos. Thirteen loth purity silver is indicated in the Vienna hallmark, and we have tested the piece and guarantee the 12 loth, otherwise known as 812 (81.2 %) silver purity for you.
The condition of the bowl is very good. Surface wear is very light. There are light scratches in a few spots, but no major scratches or dings, and no other damages or repairs. Examine our well-focused photos at full size and you will see for yourself.
Dimensions: 14 1/2 inches long by 12 3/8 inches wide by approximately 2 1/4 inches high
