Engraved Brass Charger with Central Star of David and Figurative Scenes
Description
A circular brass charger featuring a central six-pointed Star of David (Magen David) enclosing a floral motif.

The secondary concentric band depicts a continuous figurative narrative scene, including figures amongst architecture, palm trees, and camels. The outer rim is decorated with a repeating floral scroll border. The reverse is plain, showing the hammered indentations from the chasing process. No maker’s marks or artist signatures are visible on either side of the plate.
Diameter: 30.5 cm (12 inches).
