Limited edition Florentino Italian glazed Ceramic oval fruit bowl with handles. Handcrafted in Italy, gilded with 24k gold leaf trim, exquisitely hand-painted.
No visible brushstrokes can be seen which is characteristic of an authentic piece meticulously hand-painted by skilled artisans.
This exquisite and unique piece of Florentino ceramic art has beautiful cut-work throughout. This piece which displays the handwritten 112/88 Potter’s mark at the base signifies it is #88 of only 112 pieces crafted as shown on base of bowl (last image).
Truly a magnificent piece to display. There are no imperfections. It is a crafted masterpiece and a collectors dream. Only 1 available.
Note: To show Authenticity of Italian handmade ceramics, it’s essential to leave a portion of the base (as in a ring or circle) unglazed to prevent sticking to the kiln as the object is fired, as shown on the 2nd to last image. The unglazed area (Natural clay bisque ) will have a slightly rough texture and is often brownish orange.
