Very Cool!!! Congrats!!!
 

It may be the remains of a "bride's basket". They were popular in the late 1800's to early 1900's. It was common back then to give silver gifts to newlyweds. This one obviously isn't exactly the same, but it is a similar size.

Thanks for the guess, but I think this bowl is much older. Made quite primitively, as for the 18th - 19th century, there are no marks. In my opinion, it is more similar to Scandinavian bowls, perhaps Celtic. Especially since Vikings and Celts were once in those places. Another evidence of the Norse trace is the depiction on the bowl of symbols found on medieval Norse bowls. Similar to a triad
 

Here are the symbols on a Viking Age cup from a museum in Denmark.
