Large Russian-Style Malachite and Gilt Bronze Decorative Bowls, 20th Century



$1,500.00
Quantity available: 2
A stunning pair of large decorative malachite bowls, each featuring a deep green swirling malachite pattern with applied gilt bronze ormolu mounts in the shape of neoclassical ribbon-and-floral motifs. These bowls are reminiscent of Imperial Russian malachite objects, which were highly prized by Russian aristocracy and often commissioned for the Winter Palace and other grand estates. The craftsmanship suggests a 20th-century revival of the classical malachite technique, possibly inspired by Russian and French decorative arts.
