Two large bronze basins, 19th century India

Beautiful, wide, round basins in patinated and molded bronze with two cut and rolled handles ending in motifs forming a stylized heart.
Their quality craftsmanship can be appreciated in their turning and form.

These two bowls differ slightly in size, decoration and patina.
The larger bowl has the base resting on four nipples.
It has an old restoration on the bottom.
Diameter excluding handles: 81 cm. Height: 18 cm.
The narrowest bowl rests directly on the base.
Diameter excluding handles: 78 cm. Height: 18 cm

They stand on later-period iron tripod bases. They are of two different heights, allowing for a staggered presentation. One: 50 cm, the other: 35 cm.
