About the Item

This modern studio ceramic bowl features a bold magenta ceramichrome glaze and an expressive pinched rim, giving the piece a sculptural and organic presence. Produced by an unknown studio and dated to circa 1980, the bowl reflects the experimental ceramic movement of the late 20th century, when artists emphasized vivid color, tactile surfaces, and hand-formed details over strict symmetry. The exterior surface displays a textured, mottled glaze in earthy green tones that contrasts beautifully with the glossy magenta finish visible along the rim, interior, and base. The pinched top creates a dynamic, undulating silhouette, allowing the bowl to function as both a utilitarian vessel and a standalone decorative object. The underside is fully glazed in magenta and bears a stamped Ceramichrome mark, indicating the glaze type rather than a specific maker. This piece works well as a centerpiece bowl, catchall, or shelf accent and pairs nicely with modern, postmodern, or eclectic interiors. Its rich color palette and handmade character make it a strong example of late 20th-century studio ceramics. Subtle variations in glaze and form further enhance its authenticity and one-of-a-kind appeal. Condition: This bowl exhibits typical signs of vintage wear and use.
