We love these antique French terracotta mixing bowls, known as a 'tian'. And this one is gorgeous.
It is fully glazed inside and the depth of colour is absolutely superb in the glaze.
You will see there is a part where the glazing bubbled and collected too thickly at the bottom on one side. All part of the hand made ancient process and it just adds to the story of a wonderful antique piece from France.
Ideal as a wonderful fruit bowl as a centrepiece, imagine it full of lemons!
Diameter at the top 26cms (10.25") approx.
