    Description

    Stunning silver repoussé and reticulated square bowl lined with cut glass.  Austro-Hungarian marked Augusztus 18, 1872-1897,  Emlekul.  Remembrance August 18.  Repousse garlands and florals with Ram's Head accents on each corner.  The sides are reticulated.  7 inches across the middle, and 9 inches on diagonal and 6 inches tall.  Stamped S S H, with a star in the middle and flower at top.  I could not locate another stamp.  This has normal tarnish for the age and was not cleaned.  No chips or cracks in the bowl. This is a rare heirloom piece of excellent quality.
    Please let me know if you know the significance of the August 18, 1872-1897 date.
