What is the size of your bowl.  Your piece has a widely flairing , crimped downturned  rim with one area upturned it  is colorfully enameled with a stylized floral & leaf vine, with insects & bird. Your paper label dates your piece to Pre 1890. Beautiful  piece :) What else would you like to know?

Ive now gone thru about 15+ picture attempts,the bottom reflects back any flash and even small flashlight lights.Its far more reflective that it looks...

And i can't get the camera to focus on the sticker,auto or manual macro.it just wont lock onto the sticker as a focusing point for some reason.

Pattern if named,if its a brides bowl and not some other type of bowl,if its complete or is supposed to have a holder,and of course a ballbark fair selling price.

We know moser can go from circa $100 to circa $10k,and we've looked thru our books and were unable to find this one.

Oh,and before i forget,at it widest point its about 11" wide,and at its highest point its about 6" high.

I'd date it ca. 1880. It probably sat on a quadraplated silver pedestal/cradle, with a cherub/putti, bird, or other figural piece sitting above the crimp in the bowl.

Together the cradle and bowl could be worth $1-2K, depending on the size.  The bowl is still worth some coin on its own.
