This decorative bowl or basket from the 1970s is most likely crafted from brass, featuring a wide, shallow form in a warm golden-bronze tone. Its surface reveals a semi-matte finish with gentle sheen, highlighted by areas of natural patina and subtle signs of use. The upper rim is adorned with an ornate, high-relief garland and botanical motif inspired by classicism and baroque, while the slender arched handle, attached at both sides, maintains a simple and balanced line. The bowl stands on three decorative feet, each completed with ornamental detailing that underlines the era’s attention to craftsmanship. The proportions are harmonious – the body is broad and shallow, while the handle rises high, lending a sense of lightness to the piece. Condition is very good: minor scratches, patina, and possible traces of prior cleaning are visible, with no major damage or repairs.This object seems to echo the spirit of an era when decorative arts in the 1970s revisited motifs from past centuries. The brass, with its natural dullness and warmth, transports the imagination to interiors where ornament was a conscious choice and a nod to heritage. The high handle, reminiscent of an outstretched hand, invites interaction with the everyday rituals of previous decades, while the relief garlands and floral forms recall the ambiance of historic parlors and family gatherings.The bowl would work well placed on a sideboard or dining table in a classic or eclectic interior. It could be paired with a porcelain platter, crystal decanter, or period glassware, as well as soft textiles—such as damask or velvet—that underscore its historical provenance. Equally, it may serve as a decorative highlight in a modern space, introducing a contrasting golden accent to a neutral palette. Consider combining it with other ’70s pieces to emphasize a layered, collected arrangement.
