Vintage tripod bowl in hammered metal – brutalist catchall

Beautiful vintage tripod bowl in metal, aluminium or silver-plated metal, with a hammered and textured design. The piece rests on three integrated feet and features a slightly organic rounded shape, with significant surface work: hollows, reliefs, a dimpled/hammered effect, and a grey-silver patina. This type of object was often used as an ashtray, key dish, small decorative bowl, or table decoration element. This bowl reflects the spirit of the brutalist and artisanal productions of the 1960s-1970s, which are highly valued today for their sculptural and decorative qualities. Vintage condition, with patina, signs of use, slight oxidation, and visible marks of time, all contributing to its old-world charm. A beautiful decorative object for a vintage, brutalist, industrial, or curiosity cabinet ambiance.
