NEO ASSYRIAN BRONZE CARINATED BOWL
Ca. 900 - 700 BC.
A deep bronze bowl, hammered from a single thick piece of sheet. The bowl has a globular body and a flaring rim. In Neo-Assyrian culture, bronze bowls held both practical and ceremonial significance. Crafted with intricate designs and inscriptions, these bowls were used for offerings to gods, important rituals, and as luxurious household items. Their ornate patterns often depicted scenes from religious mythology or royal court life, showcasing the artistic prowess of the Neo-Assyrians. Additionally, bronze bowls were symbols of wealth and status, frequently found in the palaces of Assyrian kings. For similar see: British Museum Museum number 91297.
Size: 135mm x 60mm; Weight: 125g
Provenance: Property of a West London gentleman; previously in a collection formed on the UK/International art market in the 1990s.
