Description:
This is a hand-formed, scalloped-edge ceramic bowl with a vibrant blue and green spattered glaze on the interior. The coloration mimics crystalline or reactive glazes, with an organic, flowing appearance and high gloss. The irregular rim and artistic glazing indicate studio pottery rather than mass production. Likely made in the late 20th or early 21st century.
