A striking large antique Indian decorative plate, beautifully crafted in copper and brass and featuring an intricate etched design centred around a charming bird motif.
 
The plate showcases an elaborate combination of hand-etched and engraved decoration, with detailed floral and foliate patterns extending across the surface. The contrasting tones of the copper and brass create a wonderfully rich appearance, while the aged patina adds depth and character.
 
Indian decorative metalwork of this type was often produced as both functional and ornamental pieces, with elaborate engraved and repoussé plates commonly intended for display.
 
Its generous size and highly decorative design make it an impressive statement piece, whether displayed on a wall, on a sideboard, or as part of an eclectic collection.
