Victorian Copper Bowl by Benham and Froud of Chandos Street, London

This Victorian copper bowl has an appealing copper sheen, a thick rolled edge and a strong folding loop handle for hanging in the kitchen. The copper plate that holds the ring has the signature mark of its makers, Benham and Froud. This antique captures a piece of British history; the 'orb' logo was inspired by the present cross that the metalworkers made for the dome of St Paul's cathedral in 1821.
