Ceramic bowl with sgraffito carved umbrella retailer motif

This handcrafted and carved bowl would make a great gift.

Dimensions: This bowl is approximately 7 inches across at the lip and 3 inches high.

Food Safety: I use only food safe chemicals in my glaze materials. Lead is never used in any aspect of the pottery process. All of my pottery is waterproof, food safe, dishwasher safe( though hand washing is better for the long term life of the item) and microwave safe.

These items are wheel thrown by me in my pottery studio and decorated using a process called Sgraffito (in Italian "to scratch"). This is a decorating pottery technique produced by applying layers of color or colors (underglazes or colored slips) to leather hard pottery and then scratching or carving off parts of the layer(s) to create contrasting images, patterns and texture to reveal the clay or color underneath.

All of my pottery ware is made from a smooth stoneware clay with a porcelain like texture and is fired to a mid range temperature. I do all of my own slipping, painting, carving, glazing and firing.

Shipping: Please allow 24- 48 hours for processing your order. All items are then shipped via USPS shipping in 2-3 business days. All sales are final. However retailer, I do want you to be happy with your purchase, so please contact me if there are any problems.

Please enjoy. For all of my pottery, I spend quite a bit of time throwing, painting and/or carving each one and hope that the users have many years of enjoyment from each piece.
