Monarch Butterfly Ceramic Bowl

Description

This is a bowl that can be functional or used as a decorative piece, great to give as a gift to a butterfly lover. It's made of red earthenware clay that I threw on my potter's wheel. The bowl was handpainted (by me) using non-toxic lead-free glazes (very important). I used the majolica technique, painting three coats of a white satin glaze and then topped it off with the colored decorating glazes. The focal point of the bowl is a large Monarch butterfly. As with all ceramic pieces this bowl should be handled with care. I recommend that you not put it in the microwave or dishwasher just to extend the life of the piece.

The bowl measures appx. 6" in diameter and 2.75" in height.

If you have any questions that aren't answered in the listing or in my shop policies, please send me a convo.

Thanks for visiting.
From my hands to yours!
