ABOUT PRODUCTID 30512
This Italian shrimp bowl from the 1970s exemplifies artisan tableware where expressive form and decoration meet everyday functionality. Crafted from ceramics, the bowl features hand-painted motifs: on a glossy white surface, a naturalistic red-pink shrimp is accompanied by a yellow-green lemon wedge and green parsley leaves. A wide green line accentuates the rim, while the organic, slightly asymmetrical oval shape with gently sloping sides and a stable, flat base completes the design. The bowl measures approximately 16 × 14 cm, with a height of 6.5 cm—perfect for serving appetizers. There are no visible cracks, chips, or restoration marks, and the surface is smooth and glossy. The piece is preserved in very good condition, retaining its original and authentic decoration.The bowl evokes the spirit of 1970s southern Italy: Mediterranean ease, the freedom of the painter’s brush, and a love of daily rituals. The hand-painted motifs seem to tell stories of summer evenings by the sea, of tables laden with seafood and citrus. Every detail—from the juicy red of the shrimp to the fresh green rim—carries the playful energy and color characteristic of Italian decorative arts from this era.The bowl can be paired with other white or green tableware, or with similarly hand-painted ceramics—fitting well in eclectic, collector’s kitchens and dining rooms, but also as a stand-alone accent on a wooden table in the living room. It is worth combining it with platters in a similar style or glass carafes to highlight a Mediterranean serving character. Interiors styled as vintage, boho, or contemporary will benefit from its lightness and cheerful, homely tone.
