A fine example of early 20th-century Arts & Crafts copperware, this hand-tooled repoussé dish features a beautifully detailed hen surrounded by flowers and foliage. The hammered and embossed decoration is full of character, showing skilled craftsmanship in both texture and depth.
Measuring approximately 18cm across, this decorative piece has a warm copper patina with natural age-related wear, adding to its antique appeal. It is slightly domed in form, making it suitable as a shallow dish, wall display, or collector’s item.
Likely dating to the Arts & Crafts period (c.1900–1920s), this kind of work reflects the revival of handcraft traditions and appreciation for naturalistic motifs. A wonderful addition to an antique metalware collection, rustic farmhouse décor, or a statement piece for any interior.
Condition: Good antique condition with surface wear and tarnish appropriate to age a couple of splits to the metal see images - very difficult to see from above
