Cup with handle and foot ring
Subtle details contribute to the elegant form of this bronze bowl. The slightly flared, rolled mouth and ridge along the body align with the delicate handle; they may have both decorative and structural purpose. The handle’s flat top and rectangular shape offer a contrast with the spherical bowl.
