Fruit Console Bowl, Ceramic, Wild End-of-Day Colors
$89.00
Here is a wonderful vintage ceramic bowl. The glaze has a wild end-of-day style swirl pattern to it. Fluted sides and scalloped rim. Large size of 14" by 10" by 4" would make this a fruit, centerpiece, or console bowl. Done in a darker color scheme of dark brown, yellow, and green-blue, great for autumn decorating or guys.
Condition is excellent. However, there are several small rough spots in the clay. These are as-made, as they are under the glaze. Several glaze pops also exist. There is also a light, almost oily appearance to the inside of the bowl. My suspicion is that the bowl was used as a planter once upon a time, and this is a very light lime scale deposit.
There is no maker's mark or artist signature on this. The rough spots mentioned above make me think this was done quickly in a mold, like some factories or roadside potters might do. Others have suggested this is art pottery. If so, there are so many local artists it would be hard to ever identify the maker. loc:bdshvs

As always, buy more than one item from my shop and I'll combine the shipping. I don't make a profit on shipping like some sellers do. However, Etsy's shipping calculator doesn't do well with combined shipments, so you may get a partial refund of shipping charges after you place your order.
Keep in mind that many of my items are one-of-a-kind, and I have local customers looking at them. If you buy something that has just sold locally and wasn't yet removed, the order will be cancelled and your full payment returned to you, unless I have a similar item in stock. You can always contact me before your purchase to confirm the item is still available.
