Asian multi-metal wall plate

Post by JanGroen »

Good evening
I have found this on the market today. It was very dull and dirty but I managed to shine it up. It is aan wall plate of 28cm in diameter. It's base metal is brass with silver and copper inlay. Central disc is a peacock standing on a cobra. Pheasant in alternating silver and copper on the rim. I think it may be Hindu and probably not that old. Any ideas are welcome

Hello Jannie

Definitely Hindu imagery

This is a Thanjavur (Tanjore) art plate from southern India
