The composition is built in concentric relief, radiating outward from a softly domed center into scalloped petal bands and dense foliate engraving that covers the entire surface without interruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"527\" data-end=\"895\"\u003eEach leaf, frond, and scallop has been individually worked by hand, creating subtle variations in depth and line that distinguish true workshop craftsmanship from machine-pressed decorative wares. The surface retains a warm, naturally developed patina—silvered highlights over golden brass tones—that enhances the dimensionality of the relief rather than obscuring it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"897\" data-end=\"1274\"\u003eThe reverse is left unadorned, with a simple hanging slot consistent with wall display chargers intended as architectural accents rather than table service pieces. This format was commonly produced by skilled metalworkers in northern India, particularly in regions such as Rajasthan and Moradabad, where decorative brasswork has been a continuous craft tradition for centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1276\" data-end=\"1444\"\u003eThis is not a mass-produced tourist object. It is a deliberate, labor-intensive decorative form designed to command visual space through texture, repetition, and scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1446\" data-end=\"1449\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"1451\" data-end=\"1479\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1454\" data-end=\"1479\"\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1481\" data-end=\"1768\"\u003e→ Hand-hammered brass with repoussé and chased detailing\u003cbr data-start=\"1537\" data-end=\"1540\"\u003e→ Concentric scalloped relief with dense foliate patterning\u003cbr data-start=\"1599\" data-end=\"1602\"\u003e→ Softly domed central field surrounded by layered petal bands\u003cbr data-start=\"1664\" data-end=\"1667\"\u003e→ Natural aged patina with warm tonal variation\u003cbr data-start=\"1714\" data-end=\"1717\"\u003e→ Flat reverse with hanging slot for wall display\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1770\" data-end=\"1773\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"1775\" data-end=\"1791\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1778\" data-end=\"1791\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1793\" data-end=\"2113\"\u003eVery good vintage condition.\u003cbr data-start=\"1821\" data-end=\"1824\"\u003eThe brass surface shows consistent age-appropriate patina and light surface wear, with no structural damage, cracks, or warping observed.

Hung alone, it serves as a focal point; layered with art or textiles, it adds depth and historical texture. It pairs especially well with plaster walls, dark paint, stone, linen, or wood interiors, and complements spaces that value materiality over minimalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2490\" data-end=\"2644\"\u003eThis is a piece for collectors who appreciate craftsmanship you can feel at arm’s length—work that rewards close inspection without requiring explanation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viridian Eclection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42816028737641,"sku":null,"price":249.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/0093\/9369\/files\/ACE17A84-6D02-4E22-BF74-9216D3EB966C.jpg?v=1768370825","url":"https:\/\/viridianeclection.com\/products\/large-indian-brass-wall-charger-24-hand-chased-floral-repousse","provider":"Viridian Eclection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
