A magnificent and large (30 cm) hand-built studio ceramic centerpiece bowl by renowned Swiss artist Claire Landolt.
This heavy earthenware piece is a wonderful example of late 20th-century Swiss studio craft. Landolt’s work is highly celebrated for its soulful, hand-incised storytelling and traditional, rich amber glazes. This vibrant bowl features a beautifully executed "sgraffito" Sun Face central motif, surrounded by a whimsical, primitive border of birds and fish.
Finished in a warm, glossy amber slip glaze, the bowl showcases the artist's tactile, organic style, giving the piece wonderful depth and folk-art charm. It is a substantial, heavy statement piece that functions perfectly as a rustic fruit bowl or a standalone sculptural centerpiece for Wabi-Sabi, modernist, or eclectic interiors.
