NTIQUE MIDDLE EASTERN SILVER HOLY WATER LADLE (215g) – CEREMONIAL RELIGIOUS VESSEL • ORIENTAL SILVERWORK
A rare and beautifully crafted antique Middle Eastern silver ceremonial holy water ladle, expertly made and richly decorated. This impressive piece features a barrel-shaped bowl with a braided pattern along the upper rim, showcasing traditional Eastern silverwork techniques.
The solid silver handle widens elegantly at the top and ends with a functional hanging ring. The entire surface is adorned with hand-engraved motifs, including leaf patterns, dots, and linear elements — classic ornamental language seen in high-grade 19th–early 20th century Middle Eastern ceremonial silver.
With a substantial total weight of 215 grams, this ladle has the presence and craftsmanship expected of authentic religious ceremonial objects used in holy water rituals, blessings, or temple ceremonies. Pieces of this scale and weight are increasingly scarce, especially in such well-preserved condition.
