This beautiful, silver filigree piece is a Turkish Ottoman sweets dish. The dish features a silver filigree shaped bowl with a hinged and domed lid, supported by four legs shaped from silver to resemble floral stems, each stem with attached flowers centred with hardstone, and all set above a circular silver filigree dish with shaped edges. The filigree is wrought with a spectacular array of swirling, scrolling arabesques, demonstrating the very best of Ottoman craftsmanship.
