Both the inside and the outside of the bowl are hand-hammered, giving a dimpled surface that catches the light. A flat rim with a copper-toned rolled edge runs around the bowl, and the handles curl up and outward at each end. The bowl rests on a short, stepped round pedestal foot. The finish is an unpolished golden-brown patina. It suits a sideboard, console table, desk or mantel, as a centerpiece or a catchall for keys and small items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBackground\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFooted brass bowls in this boat shape were made as fruit, sweet and centerpiece dishes.
