This exceptional large bronze bowl, designed by Gunnar Nylund for Äkta Brons in the 1940s, is a rare example of Swedish Art Deco metalwork at its finest. Cast in solid bronze, the bowl features a beautifully detailed relief depicting an underwater scene with marine life—graceful fish, flowing seaweed, and organic textures rendered in Nylund’s distinctive sculptural style.

The bowl’s elegant, rounded form is complemented by a warm, natural patina that enhances the depth of the cast relief. Known primarily for his ceramic designs, Nylund brings the same artistic sensitivity and precision to this rare bronze work.

Marked on the underside and in excellent vintage condition. A museum-worthy piece of Swedish design—striking as a centerpiece, sculptural object, or collector’s treasure. This piece has an attribution mark,
