Painted patterns..........


I have always appreciated painted designs on dishes and this  one is a fun pattern. I know that some of the work is done through stencil or decals but it still was touched personally by one or many different glaze painters.


I am certain that the line design of the flower and leaves start out as a stencil but the rest is hand painted. I hadn't noticed that the center stencil was placed a little off center until I photographed it. This is one of those pieces that I brought from my parents home, but I really don't know it's history. I may be a family piece but it also could of been something that was given to my mom.


The glaze is crazing on this bowl and they did use a glaze decal or stencil to let you know where it was created.

Thanks for stopping by......

  3. What a cheery design. It's so like me to not notice that something was off-center until viewing a photo too.
