A collection of 13 pieces of vintage decorative metalware, likely Middle Eastern or South Asian in origin, executed primarily in copper and brass alloys. The collection includes three large platters or chargers, three decorative bowls of varying styles (one featuring colorful pierced openwork, one dark-enameled with gold floral motifs), one small lidded brass kettle, one small brass pitcher, two smaller metal plates or saucers (one etched, one with relief decoration), and a pair of contrasting tall black metal vases with engraved silver-tone floral designs. The dominant aesthetic is characterized by intricate etching, engraving, and extensive polychrome enamel or paint decoration featuring complex stylized floral, mandala, and paisley patterns rendered in dotted and teardrop motifs across the platters and bowls. A rectangular metal box is included, detailed with relief metalwork and overlaid with colorful inlaid glass beads or stones along its perimeter.
