Indian Brass Potiche and Cover, early C20th

A fine quality brass potiche and cover, the body of near spherical form with a short spreading foot and a small concave neck, the top rim with a narrow inner ledge on which the flush fitting domed cover rests, the lid top with a ‘knob’ finial. The style of decoration here with gilt and red enamel raised decoration is typical of Indian work in the early C20th, although the cream craquelure effect background is more unusual. The main body is decorated with stylised flowers and there are bands of repeating stylised scrolling foliage at the top and on the lid, with a band of repeating stylised leaf design at the base. The composition of the whole is pleasing and enhances the form of the piece. Possibly intended for storage, this potiche functions as an elegant decorative vessel for a contemporary interior.
