Bowl

Post by meyrink »

Have a nice day.

I would like to consult about this silver bowl with a depiction of a saint. It has nice decorated handles. It has the only noticeable hallmark - the Prague repunz of 1806-1807. I did not find any other marking.

The bowl weighs 101 g and measures 12,3 x 14,3 cm.

In your experience, what period and region could it be from? Does anyone recognise the saint depicted?

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you, meyrink

Hi,
To the left of Repunzierung mark, there is another mark, hidden within the patina.

Possibly another hallmark above the Repunzierung mark? ::: Possibly a "wheel-with-spokes" or "sun-with-rays" type of symbol? ::

Thank you. There is really no hint of another mark on the dish. I plan to have the bowl cleaned by a professional, but the price varies up to nine times. So I'm hesitant whether the bowl is really Renaissance or Baroque or "only" Classical. I would also decide on the amount of investment in cleaning based on that.
