running/flowing decoration Explanation: Little more than an inspired guess based on what I found here: http://www.lot-tissimo.com/en/cmd/lan/l/en/ "A Biedermeier bowl with floral decoration End 19th. cent. Not marked. Open worked decoration of flowers, c-shapes and leafs. H. 5,5 cm. W. 39 cm. Weight ca. 360 gr." "Biedermeier-Schale mit Floraldekor Deutsch, Mitte 19. Jh. Tremulierstrich. Durchbrochener Treibdekor von Blüten, C-Schwüngen und Blattwerk. Min. besch. H. 5,5 cm. L. 39 cm. Gew. ca. 360 gr." See also: http://www.lot-tissimo.com/de/cmd/lan/l/de/ |

Reference: see Treibarbeiten, Treiben Reference information: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treiben Not sure if this is right but perhaps a start, could the decoration be made using this method? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2011-09-25 22:21:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Als treiben bezeichnet man die Arbeitstechnik in der aus einer flachen Blechplatte plastische Formen oder auch Reliefs gearbeitet werden." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2011-09-25 22:21:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.grabenschmiede.de/index.php/projekte_leser/items/... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2011-09-25 22:43:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/dect/hd_dect.htm Just thought this link might be useful tho maybe not enough detail for the project youre working on!
