Take your decoration to the next level with this highly-collectible Royal Solid Silver Niello Bowl on Pedestal with Lotus Lid. Nielloware has been a status symbol of royalty in many countries in Southeast Asia including Thailand, Myanmar, and Cambodia. The process of creating niello objects is a very labor-intensive and elaborate one. Typically, precious metals such as gold, silver, or brass are incised to create meaning, often culturally, depictions or patterns on an object. Cambodian silversmiths are considered among the most skilled experts at chasing, repoussé, niello, enameling, and gilding such objects.
Particularly, this intricately-engraved silver bowl on a pedestal with a lotus-shaped lid features engraved flora and foliate decoration. Every Royal Niello Bowl with Lotus Lid requires complicated engraving by hands for 6 months before birthing a highly detailed nielloware. It is such an exceptional example of Southeast Asian niello works, making it a perfect heirloom for your beloved family.
These precious niello bowls have been a valuable gift between countries for centuries. For example, in 1931, Thai King King Prajadhipok gifted a silver niello bowl to Present Herbert Hoover. Again, during the presidency of George W. Bush, he was gifted another niello bowl by the new Thai King.
