Vintage Yogya Silver Kala Bowl by Tom's Silver, circa 1960's, Indonesia
About the Item
A bold and well crafted Indonesian Yogya (Jogja, Djokja) silver bowl by Tom's Silver, Yogyakarta, Java, Indonesia, circa 1960's.
The elegant bowl features a striking design of a Kala face, a protective monster often found above temple doors, and representative of time, death, and rebirth. A pair of makara flank the wide open, smiling mouth. A stylized foliate design surrounds the Kala.
Kala are analogous with the Kirtimukha, or face of glory, originating in India and associated with Shiva. Both beings are devourers of evil and tasked with protection
The bowl features two beaded borders, and a scalloped rim.
The bowl set on three short out-swept feet.
Stamped mark to the underside reading "TOM" "800" "DELUX". TOM stands for Tom's Silver, perhaps the most famous silver workshop in Yogyakarta. 800 is the purity of the silver (80%). DELUX is a common mark on Yogya silver.
