The slightly narrowing stem with engraved spiralling flower-form decoration leads to a knop, with petal-like divisions. The bowl is very richly decorated with repousse and engraved decoration in panels. Each of the 4 panels/reserves with raised floral vignettes. Very fine workmanship and detail. The areas between the panels are colette set with jewels - turquoise and garnets.
