This striking mid-century Cairo Ware vase is a fine example of the Mamluk Revival style, skillfully hand-hammered with a blend of mixed metals. The vessel features a warm brass body intricately inlaid with copper and silver-tone overlays. The detailed decorative scenes depict traditional Pharaonic motifs, including figures of ancient rulers, pyramids, and delicate lotus patterns that wrap around the vessel's circumference.

Standing at approximately 10.5 inches tall and 9.5 inches wide, this large decorative piece serves as a sophisticated statement of Egyptian Revival artistry. The dark, matte patina on the brass provides a rich, authentic finish that beautifully contrasts with the mixed-metal overlays.

Dimensions:
9.5”w x 9.5”d x 10.5”h
