Extremely fine hand-tooled piece of Ottoman pierced silver with removable plain silver liner and on white metal base. 19th century. Liner with Tughra Mark of the Sultan & Standard Mark. Both pieces also bear the zigzag mark (tremmolier-strich).
The flower shaped bowl has eight scallops or lobes to the upper edge and eight pierced panels to the sides of the basket. These have been hand cut using a small saw, a lengthy and laborious process. The holder is shaped like a flower or inverted bell with a milled edge around the base. It sits upon a plain silver knopped stem above a plain stepped foot with a beaded edge all supported by an integral rococo style pedestal stand.
