This Danish brass pedestal bowl, produced by Malm in the 1950s, fuses Neo-Classical ornamentation with the restraint and balance characteristic of Danish mid-century taste. The bowl features a wide band of hand-engraved foliate and arabesque motifs in a subtly antiqued shade, bordered at the top by a smooth, rolled rim. Symmetrical cast brass handles, each with a round, swinging ring suspended from stylized mounts, evoke the decorative vocabulary of antiquity. The slender stem supports a broad, stable circular base adorned with fine concentric incised rings. The brass displays a brilliant, polished luster in a rich golden hue, with minor patina settling in recesses and minimal micro-scratches consistent with age and light use. No visible dents, losses, or repairs are present; the bowl remains in very good condition, preserving its craftsmanship and clarity of form. The bowl carries the narrative of the 1950s, when Danish artisans transformed antique motifs through the lens of modern functionality and subtlety. Its proportions recall Classical reverence, while the engraved decoration speaks of the hand and eye of a skilled craftsperson. The handles and rings are echoes of feasts and ceremonies long past, yet the high-shine brass still captures and reflects light as it might have decades ago. Here is an object shaped for gentle rituals, blending decorative gravitas with everyday resonance. The bowl would suit a mid-century style interior placed on a teak console or sideboard, where
