This well-crafted parcel-gilt silver filigree gulab pash, shaped like a flattened drop, rests on an elegant openwork foot adorned with intricate palmette motifs. The central medallion features delicate floral sprays, framed by lush leaves and scrolling vegetal designs. A slender ring neck rises gracefully to a tapering stem, culminating in an elaborate floral bouquet finial, with meticulously crafted rosette heads. The gilt detailing accentuates the intricate filigree patterns, adding depth and contrast. Traditionally used for sprinkling rosewater in ceremonial and festive settings, this piece embodies the refined silverwork traditions of Eastern India. For a very similar Cuttack silver filigree sprinkler, see cat. 96 in Christiane Terlinden Serra, Mughal Silver Magnificence , p. 86.
