This studio ceramic bowl by Keramo Kostelec is a fine example of mid-century Czechoslovakian design. Produced in the 1960s, the piece features a distinctive sgraffito technique, where the top layer of dark glaze is scratched away to reveal the lighter clay beneath, creating a striking floral and avian motif.
Crafted from ceramic, the bowl has a matte brown finish that contrasts beautifully with the white and lighter brown tones of the incised design. The bowl's shallow, wide form makes it a versatile decorative object.
The piece remains in good vintage condition, retaining its original finish and character. The sgraffito work is crisp and well-preserved, highlighting the tactile quality of the ceramic.
This bowl is a charming addition to any mid-century modern or eclectic interior. It works well as a standalone decorative piece on a console or coffee table, or as part of a curated collection of vintage ceramics.
