Notes
The piece is a round-bottomed bowl and the lid is almost flat. The surface of both the bowl and the lid has been hammered to form a regular relief design braided from a thin bow and arabesque lines in bands, stars, medallions and knots, which have been inlaid with silver superficially by hammering on a prepared surface (incised dotted lines). The surface between the silver lines is filled with vine designs in relief and on the edge of the bowl there is a zig-zag pattern. (Zigzag) and T-shaped, divided into six lengths by small discs.
