A silver ‘dragon' foliate rim punch bowl

The lined bowl is decorated to the exterior with a striding three-clawed dragon with trailing whiskers in high relief. The underside of the rim is decorated with a floral design. The base is marked 'jungin' (pure silver), with one seal mark of Musashiya, and the other is an artist's mark reading Yoshihide sei.

Catalogue notes: a very similar bowl marked Tsunenori was sold at Bonhams, New York, 16 September 2014, lot 2301.

Condition: appears to be in overall good condition, apart from possible soldering repair to the whisker.
