Bidri Basin

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Bidri Basin by an unknown artist features a large, shallow bowl with a wide mouth and a short, narrow stem connecting to a bulbous base. The bowl and base are predominantly dark gray with intricate inlays of white and gold. The inlays form a floral pattern, with white flowers and gold accents on a dark background. The bowl's interior and exterior surfaces are decorated with the same pattern. The base has three small feet. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
