This Danish ceramic bowl from the 1970s exemplifies Scandinavian modernism, where function and understated decoration go hand in hand. The low, cylindrical shape—measuring 19 cm in diameter and 7 cm in height—is crafted from robust stoneware, as evident in its substantial weight and characteristic base texture. The exterior features hand-applied brown streaks on a matte beige background, creating a subtle, organic striped pattern. The wide, flat rim and interior are finished in deep chocolate brown with a satin-matte glaze, providing a striking contrast to the lighter body. The bowl’s contours are clean and precise, with a slightly flared rim that enhances both its practical and decorative appeal. It remains in good vintage condition, retaining minor surface scratches and light glaze wear typical for its age, with no major damage. This bowl carries the quiet voice of Denmark in the 1970s: simplicity shaped by a sense of tactility, with brush-applied glaze lines evoking a closeness to nature and daily rituals. The broad rim seems to invite sharing, while the interplay of beige and brown reflects an affinity for harmony and earthy tones so valued in Scandinavian design of the era. The object suggests stories of home gatherings and moments of calm, bearing traces of the maker’s hand and the spirit of a time that prized authentic materials. The bowl would be well suited for display on
