length 7 1/4 inches, weight a beefy 1.96 Troy ounces, marked and monogrammed as shown in enlargements.

Those who have had the good fortune to make the pilgrimage to Gorham's archives at Brown University will know that the company sent representatives to collect fabric samples from around the globe. These influences are used to great effect in this tour de force of chasing and piercing skills.

One caveat about condition: somebody appears to have begun removing the gold wash from the reverse of the bowl with a buffer, then realized that they were softening the pattern and (thankfully) given up.
