Silver bowls with floral decoration were widespread in the Hellenistic Period. Some were made in two parts and have their ornament in high relief, while others, as here, are made from one piece, with the decoration executed in extremely low relief. For a high relief example in Toledo and a discussion of the type see p. 79 in Oliver, Silver for the Gods, 800 Years of Greek and Roman Silver.
