Details

This beautiful ceramic bowl is a true gem for any collector or decorator. The hand-painted fruit pattern and glazed finish make it a stunning decorative piece, perfect for displaying as a centerpiece or storing fruits and vegetables. With a approximate diameter of 10.5" and a height of 11", this bowl may be perfect for serving large meals and appetizers if you so desired.. it is a great statement or centerpiece for tables, console tables, entry tables or as a gift for a wedding, new bride or anniversary or housewarming. It will be treasured I am certain. They definitely do not make them like this anymore in my opinion.


The bowl is handmade in Italy, using traditional pottery techniques and production styles, such as Majolica and American Empire. It features a round shape, a fruit theme, and a lidded design, making it a unique and functional piece. This vintage bowl is in excellent condition, ready to be cherished by its new owner.


Appears to be three spots on the inside of the lid that looks like adjustments by the potter before firing. Cutting marks can be seen and seem to align with what would make the lid fit appropriately. These so no look like chips to me. They look made as part of the finishing process. Please see and make your determination. No areas of damage noted. There is crazing appropriate for age. Please see photos for condition measurements and description. The quality of this piece and beautiful condition is reflected in the price for this piece. RARE to find this piece in this quality.
