Small Antique Tree of Life Bowl
This small antique handmade bowl from Calabria dates back to the late 1800s, and features a spirited hand painted design in pistachio green set against a buttermilk-hue base. The abstract tree of life decoration signifies good fortune and longevity to the largely rural folk of the time, with hopes of a bountiful harvest. The old clay pottery from southern Italy is thick and robust, with that unmistakable handmade feel. This rustic bowl has that special patina that only the passing of time and daily use can authentically bring about. Today, the antique bowl would make a great addition to the kitchen or to a table setting, injecting some southern Italian charm to your space. Perfect when pared with the matching farmhouse bowls from Calabria as seen in the images.
Found in Ostuni
the charming hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known as the la città bianca (or ‘white city’).
Dimensions: H6cm x W17cm x D17cm
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
