A miscellaneous collection of metalware comprising a wrought copper bowl, a brass stand, and a brass animal figurine fragment. The copper bowl features a wide, flared rim decorated with a repeating border of hand-punched circular motifs. The vessel shows evidence of hand-hammering throughout the body and a rolled rim construction. The brass stand is designed with a circular top plate featuring a pierced and engraved diamond-grid pattern, supported by a cast tripod base with three stylized, scrolling legs. The brass animal figurine depicts the forequarters of a leaping deer? or hound?, showing a cast form with upright ears and front legs extended. The copper bowl exhibits a heavy internal verdigris and darkened oxidation. The brass components show a mix of polished surfaces and deep green oxidation within the recessed decorative piercings and cast details. No maker marks or signatures are visible on any of the pieces.
