A handsome neoclassical tazza in patinated brass and bronze tones, the shallow dish raised on a draped, fluted plinth with an architectural ring handle and stepped base. The proportions are elegant and weighty, giving that “old money” presence on a mantel, console, or dining table. Style-wise it straddles Art Deco revival and Hollywood Regency, and it works as a dramatic fruit bowl, candle platform, or entry catchall.

Condition is good, sound, and ready to use. The surface shows an honest, mellowed patina with rubbing to the high points, a few specks of old overpaint and age marks to the dish interior, and a visible historic braze at the collar—all photographed. Base retains a felted underside to protect furniture.
