This antique Chinese copper bowl features a scalloped, lobed form reminiscent of a lotus flower. The exterior is meticulously decorated with repoussé and chased details, showcasing traditional floral scrolls and auspicious deer motifs within each petal-shaped panel. The interior well also displays a central engraved floral medallion. The base features a four-character seal mark in Seal Script (Zhuanshu) that reads "Qianlong Nian Zhi" (Made during the Qianlong Reign), though likely an apocryphal mark consistent with late 19th or early 20th-century production. The piece is housed in a gold-toned presentation box with a padded orange silk-style lining.
