This extraordinary antique silver bowl from the Kutch region of India, dating to the late 19th or early 20th century, exemplifies the high artistry and storytelling tradition of Indian silversmithing. The bowl is raised on a tripod base featuring three elaborately cast elephant figures, each mounted by a rider in traditional attire, adding a regal and symbolic presence to the composition.

 

The bulbous body is richly decorated in fine repoussé and chasing work, depicting dense foliage interwoven with stylized animals—lions, deer, and hounds—symbolizing power, nobility, and the natural world. The fitted domed lid continues the decorative theme and is topped with a proud lion finial, reinforcing the vessel’s commanding visual narrative.

 

Kutch silverware is renowned for its distinctive aesthetic: dense yet balanced motifs, high-relief craftsmanship, and strong cultural iconography. This piece is a fine representation of that legacy—ideal as a centerpiece, ceremonial object, or part of a curated silver collection.
