Large decorative Chinese copper or copper-alloy bowl featuring an elaborate embossed and chased design. The center displays the Chinese character 壽 (shòu), meaning “longevity,” surrounded by a geometric medallion, abundant flowers, scrolling foliage and finely textured backgrounds. The floral decoration appears to include traditional peonies and chrysanthemums, both associated with prosperity, honor and long life in Chinese decorative art. The broad, shallow form can be displayed upright as a charger or wall plaque, or used horizontally as a decorative centerpiece bowl. The warm aged copper surface has acquired an attractive dark brown patina with areas of oxidation, discoloration, rubbing and surface wear consistent with age and previous display. No maker’s mark is visible in the photographs. Likely a vintage 20th-century Chinese decorative export piece rather than an early antique. Please review all photographs closely for condition and design details. Display stand is not included.
