Vintage Studio Pottery Hand Painted Apple 11" Deep Serving Bowl Spongeware Rim

Bring authentic farmhouse charm to your kitchen with this gorgeous vintage studio art pottery bowl. Hand-turned and crafted from a heavy, high-quality speckled stoneware base, this massive 11-inch bowl features a gorgeous hand-painted red apple centerpiece accent with dual green leaves. The outer lip is framed in a lovely country-style green spongeware border.  The base features a hand-painted cursive monogram signature under the glaze, typical of independent folk-art pottery studios from the late 20th century revival era.  Due to its excellent 2.5-inch depth, this versatile piece functions perfectly as a large family-sized salad or pasta serving bowl, a deep-dish country pie baker, or a rustic countertop fruit display bowl.  Condition: Excellent vintage condition! No chips, cracks, structural issues, or flea bites. Colors remain crisp and the glaze has a wonderful sheen. Clean and beautifully maintained from a smoke-free home.  Will be carefully packaged to ensure safe transit to its new home!
