If you're looking for unique, decorative yet functional items for your home, studio pottery is the way to go. Becoming more and more fashionable, these stand out pieces usually in muted, earthy tones would look lovely in any style home.
Studio pottery is pottery made by professional and amateur artists or artisans working alone or in small groups, making unique items or short runs. Typically, all stages of manufacture are carried out by the artists themselves.
This beautiful item was probably made with the intended of being a cheese cover, but would work just as well as a pedestal bowl and is sure to look great on any table setting or shelf, and with that natural colour pallet of greens and browns it will definitely enhance any rustic interior.
In general good condition with a small chip to the pedestal rim as photographed.
Measures approximately 10.5cm tall and 19.5cm in diameter.
