Peculiar little silver bowl/cup-where is it from ?

Here's a cute little silver footed cup or bowl.It's 6 1/2 inches across by 2 3/4 inches high.It looks hand-crafted with a hammered bowl,cast handles and feet.I can't find any marks,stamps or signatures on it .My wild guess would be it's Peruvian,but who knows ?
Any info will be a great help-thanks !

 

Fun bowl!
I get a South American vibe from it too. Peruvian or Bolivian, perhaps.

 

I get the same vibe from it.The little animal handles are to goofy to resist.

 

It's adorable! You can eat your porridge out of it.

 

The little critters got me-love the whimsey.

 

Did you test the metal?

 

Not yet-I've to order a basic metal testing kit online,just have pick one.No mark or stamp so far.I like the hammering & casting qualities-sophisticated yet also primitive.Seems they were imitating a European motif but with indigenous forms & the feet aren't evenly spaced.
It's fun & intriguing-my fave kind of find.
PS-Here's a few similar bowls I found online.
Pic#1 spoon handle that's vaguely reminiscent.Pic#2 shows the scoring (cross hatching) in another piece's figural handle

 

great find that mate, my silver senses are tingling in the above last pic

edit - from another piece - doh !!!

 

Thanks Charlie-Just changed my caption to reflect these are 2 other pieces w/similar characteristics (should've clarified that).

 

nah my bad bosky, it was stated, i only read it after

 

I thought so too. Dolphins perhaps. A modern twist on Spanish Colonial. This was sold at an auction a couple of years ago as Spanish Colonial, possibly Peruvian or Bolivian.

 

It does look that Finn-seems more refined than most of the Colonial workmanship.

 

Even the legs on the bowl look vaguely reptilian. The critters look like geckoes. I'm not sure where those are native to, but they've found a home in a lot of warm climates with lots of bugs for them to eat.

 

I think they look gecko too.

 

The old European handles known as dolphin handles could look pretty lizardly… and turn into full ones after crossing the Atlantic.

 

Would love to see that puppy polished up

 

It will look good polished.I've got Wrights & Simichrome.

 

They look a lot like Celtic sea horses to me. You know - those funny little things that look like sea horses?

 

Here tis w/ a bit of quick polish.You can see both the feet & handles are off kilter & still can't find a mark !
