Silver Kashmir Kashkul Etched Paisley Snakes Foliate Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Metals: Silver: Sterling: Pre 1900 item# 756522
click for details		The Old Bazaar 510-910-3922 $195.00
Late 19th century finely etched kashkul shaped vessel or bowl from Kashmir. Both ends have snake heads, and there is a snaky paisley pattern over a fine foliate background. Measures 5.5" (14cm) tip to tip, and 2.5" (6.35cm) across, and 3" (7.6cm) tall. It weighs four ounces (113gm). Generally silver from Kashmir is 80% to 90% pure. I cannot find a makers mark, which is not unusual for non-export silver from this area and era. A second, identical piece is also available.

Persian Qajar Silver Wine Service Set Pitcher Tray Cups Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Metals: Silver: Asia Trade: Pre 1920 item# 630639
click for details		The Old Bazaar 510-910-3922 $1250.00
Persian silver wine set. The floral and bird medallion design across the belly of the pitcher as well as the central medallion of the tray is a typical Persian Qajar (Victorian) era theme. The tray is marked 84 in Persian numerals, I am not familiar with the makers mark. I couldn't find a mark on any of the other pieces, so I am assuming this was intended for domestic use. The tray is 11" by 6.5" weighs 10.4 ounces, the pitcher is 9.5" tall by 3.5" in diameter and weighs 8 ounces, the cups are 1.75" tall by 1.6" across and weigh about 1.5 ounces each. The total weight of this set is 27.3 ounces.
