About the Item
A fine Middle Eastern, possibly Egyptian, Mamluk revival hand crafted brass vase inlaid with silver and copper and dating from the early to mid-20th century.
The Mamluk revival was a cultural movement during which much of the Middle East sought to preserve and celebrate the artistic legacy of the Mamluk Sultanate, a period renowned for its sophisticated craftsmanship, particularly in metalwork. This revival, emerging in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reflected a deep respect for the opulence and intricacy of medieval Islamic art.
This vase is a striking example of this revivalist spirit. It is crafted from brass and richly inlaid with silver and copper, the piece stands as a testament to the enduring influence of Mamluk design principles. Its surface is adorned with floral motifs and endless knots, scrolling patterns and Islamic script. The vase is not marked.

While this bowl has certainly witnessed the passage of time, it remains in remarkably good condition, with only minor signs of age that add character to its appearance. The patina on the brass enhances its antique allure, making it a truly authentic and captivating collectible.
Arabic Calligraphy: The Arabic writing on the bowl is a work of art in itself. The calligraphy showcases the mastery of the scribe's hand, with flowing curves and intricate details that form an elegant script. The script may include Quranic verses, blessings, or poetic verses, depending on the bowl's origin and purpose. The inscriptions are not only visually striking but also carry profound meaning, making this bowl a beautiful representation of Islamic heritage.
Intricate Patterns: In addition to the Arabic calligraphy, the bowl features intricate geometric patterns and motifs that further enhance its visual appeal. These patterns are a hallmark of Islamic art and reflect the mathematical precision and artistic creativity that defined Islamic craftsmanship.
