<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 273433, member: 59"]I call those acanthus leaves on the bowl part. If the 3-dimensional parts (on the outside) are indented on the inside, then yes I think you could call it repousse. (not "repose") The technical definition is that the design is worked from the inside and then chased on the outside to make the design crisp. It's hard to see in the picture (lighting) whether that's the case.</p><p><br /></p><p>Very cute. Who made it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
