Large Rimmed Pottery Bowl with Hand-Painted Flowers and Butterflies

Pottery / Handmade / Hand-painted Diameter: 21.5 cm, Height: 7.3 cm This large rimmed bowl features delicate illustrations of butterflies and flowers, painted in pale, pastel-like colors. The artwork is playfully scattered across the piece—on the front, back, and even the interior. The bowl is finished with a generous layer of transparent glaze over white clay, giving it a smooth, glossy, glass-like shine. Due to the thick application of the glaze, visible "kannyu" (crazing/fine surface cracks) may appear. This is a natural characteristic of the glaze and does not affect the functionality of the piece. Please enjoy it as part of the ceramic's unique personality. This piece is notably thick and has a substantial, heavy feel in the hand. *Note: Pottery (clayware) differs from porcelain, offering a soft and warm texture. Minor pinholes (glaze pores) or slight glaze variations may be present; these are considered part of the unique character and rustic charm of "clayware." Initially, the texture may seem simpler than in photos, but as you use it, the authentic, tactile quality and rustic simplicity will grow on you. *Actual colors may vary slightly from the images due to device display settings. While images are adjusted on a PC, they may appear more vivid on smartphones. Please understand these potential differences in color.
