A collection of decorative objects comprising metalware and natural materials. The group includes a traditional Middle Eastern brass dallah coffee pot featuring an octagonal tapering body, a hinged lid with a tall pointed finial, and a characteristically long curved spout. The exterior is decorated throughout with chased floral and foliate motifs. Also present is a Buddha head bust represented in a Southeast Asian style with snail-shell hair curls, a raised ushnisha, and elongated earlobes, finished with a variegated bronze-effect patina. A decorative cast metal incense burner or oil lamp features an intricate filigree body and lid with a dark patinated finish; the pedestal base is embossed with hexagonal cells containing the Chinese character 福 (fú), representing good fortune or blessing. The lot further includes a matching pair of drinking beakers fashioned from sections of polished natural horn, showing translucent grain in shades of cream and brown, each fitted with a circular dark wood base.
