A collection of eleven decorative metalware items, primarily cast brass with one wrought copper vessel. The group comprises two bells: one wall-mounted with a cross-shaped bracket and pull cord, the other suspended from a large circular ring. The lot includes two animalier figurines depicting a lizard and a rearing cobra. There are two leaf-form dishes consisting of one elongated fern frond and one maple leaf with a stem handle. Also included are a triangular openwork trivet, a decorative skeleton key, a scalloped pin dish, a small cylindrical vessel, and a wrought copper jug with a bulbous body and scrolled handle. The items are produced through casting and metal-beating techniques. No maker’s marks or hallmarks are visible.
Fern leaf dish length: approximately 28cm.
