Thrown from dense red clay, the bowl features a broad, shallow form with a rolled and ridged rim, two small squared tab handles, and a subtle pour notch -- all hallmarks of a piece made to be used daily rather than admired from a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior is covered in a warm, deep amber-brown glaze that has developed the gentle depth that only comes with long years of use. The exterior below the rim is left unglazed, as was standard practice in French country potteries where fired earthenware was a workhorse of the kitchen and table. Pieces from named regional potteries like this one are increasingly collected by those who appreciate honest, handmade craft, and the bowl translates naturally into a modern home -- holding fruit on a farmhouse counter, displayed on an open shelf, or grouped with other French glazed pottery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.
