Large Antique mixing bowl. Lots of beautiful, authentic, Wabi Sabi, Or Shibui. Japanese aesthetic words/philosophies. Loosely translated: Shibui means an an aesthetic that only time can reveal, Wabi Sabi means the beauty of imperfection, how flaws bring deep beauty to objects, experiences. The perfection of imperfection.

Manufacturing place or company is unknown. I bought it from an estate sale in Santa Fe, NM.

Yes, you can put it through your dishwasher & in your microwave. Not your oven. I had it in my antique & art collection & sometimes used it as a fruit bowl. Its looks amazing filled with things like avocados, plums, apples etc..

This is sturdy & solid & heavyweight, has many beautiful "flaws", pitted glaze, crazing, chip etc.

The glaze is glossy and may be an oxidized iron based glaze or rutile.

Clay body: White Stoneware. Traditional stacked firing method from Bottle neck kilns.

Enjoy the photos & video- its even better in person!

Dimensions: 9.5 x 9.5 x 5 Weight: 3lb 7oz

So we’re all watching The Great Pottery Throw Down, yes?

Whatever formula or drug these producers slipped into this show and the baking show is absurdly intoxicating.

I’ve switched soggy bottoms for cracked pots.

partially in relation to last reblog but I have been thinking a lot about The Hand Of The Craftsman due to the fact that. well. the cat broke a very nice bowl that my grandma gave us and we are trying to hide this and I have been thinking about if I could possibly forge a replacement. and there are so many factors! of the precise speckled clay and the glaze and the four colors of stain and the stamps they're applied with and the angle and size of the foot and whether or not it shows the finger-mark of the person who threw it on the wheel and the kiln temperature and the thickness of the rim and the studio's maker's mark and where it's placed underneath the foot and even though it's a production-made bowl from a larger studio it's darn near impossible to make anything like to it outside that context.

maybe we should just tell grandma the cat broke her bowl :/
