Absolutely stunning piece of silver coming from the midcentury out of Egypt. This piece weighs 758 grams, measures about 14.5 inches across, and has about 3.5 inches in height. This fruit bowl is a massive statement piece. The marks loosely correspond to 1949-1951 but it?s unclear which year within that period and who made this piece. It is high quality and could serve as a museum piece with how high quality it is. I have loosely polished it to make the marks come through, but a more thorough polish could be done to match the buyer?s preference without stripping the patina. This Egyptian .900 silver footed fruit bowl features a beautiful floral design with a ruffled edge, showcasing intricate craftsmanship. Made in Egypt, this post-1940 piece is a stunning representation of Middle Eastern artistry. The ornate bowl is not only functional but also a striking decorative item that would make a unique addition to any collection of antiques or fine silverware. This piece is not melt but its scrap value is approximately $1000 for reference. Shipped via usps with insurance and carefully boxed due to size. Signature will be required per?s terms. This item will likely require?s authentication team which ensures you receive an accurate item. Ac
