1960s Large Italian Glazed Ceramic Leather Backed Bowl

SOLD

Here is a large (for one of these) and unusually shaped Italian ceramic bowl in the Fantoni/Gambone style of a very high gloss finish colourfully decorated with a stylised image of a girl wearing a hat in red, yellow, purple and black glazes on a white ground.   As many of these pieces are, it is leather backed, and although the leather is in a dry and poor state the bowl itself is in superb, undamaged and original condition.  With a fabulous scalloped shape to rim this is a highly collectable piece of retro Italian pottery.
