Vintage Mediterranean Studio Pottery Slipware Bowl

An incredibly beautiful and characterful piece of Mediterranean studio pottery, this hand-painted slipware bowl is a celebration of both function and artistry. Glazed in a soft cream tone with painterly cobalt blue and green floral motifs, the design is framed by a scalloped border that dances around the rim, a timeless pattern that feels both rustic and refined.

Perfect for serving fruit, salads, or as a centrepiece at the table, while the two small holes at the back reveal it was also made to hang, transforming into a striking piece of wall art when displayed. The terracotta base and traditional slipware glaze speak to its handmade origins, carrying with them a sense of heritage and Mediterranean sun-soaked living.

This is the kind of piece that holds presence in a room, equally at home styled in a country kitchen, hung among a collection of plates, or used in everyday rituals of food and gathering. Both useful and decorative, it’s an heirloom-worthy object to be treasured.
