A beautifully hand-painted studio art pottery bowl featuring an original underwater scene — koi fish gliding through water on the exterior, with lily pads floating overhead on the interior. The design wraps the bowl in a complete pond-like narrative, signed "Anna H, Hand Painted CR" on the base.
DETAILS - Studio art pottery, hand-painted by Anna H - Tube-lined / slip-trail glaze technique (in the style of Moorcroft) - Approximate dimensions: 6.5" diameter - Weight: approximately 12.5 oz (carefully packed for shipping) - Signed on base: "Anna H" and "Hand Painted CR" - Vibrant green, yellow, orange, and purple hand-applied glazes - Raised slip-trail outlines create dimensional koi, fins, scales, and lily pads
ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE This bowl is decorated using the tube-lining method — a labor-intensive process where liquid clay is piped onto the bisque body to create raised outlines, which are then filled with colored glazes by hand. The result is a tactile, jewel-like surface reminiscent of British art pottery traditions popularized by Moorcroft.
CONDITION Excellent vintage / pre-owned condition. No chips, cracks, or hairlines observed. Glaze is bright with no fading. Please review all photos as they form part of the description.
SHIPPING Carefully wrapped in bubble wrap and packed in a double-walled box. Ships from Washington State via USPS Ground Advantage with tracking.
