LARGE 3 FOOTED SCULPTURED BOWL ID HELP???
« on: April 03, 2015, 08:47:34 PM »
Bought this at an outdoor antique market in North Carolina (USA).
It is 15" inches at longest point.
13" inches wide
4" inches tall
3" inches deep
Pontil is highly polished not dull as it seems in pics.
Light shines through as amethyst color.
Gold waves sparkle like glitter.
Any help identifying/information on this piece would be greatly appreciated.

Fratelli Toso , there is a bowl on page 156 of Pina's book on Fratelli Toso that matches very nicely. It is also huge but a more elongated shape and shares the same clear feet and 'ribs' on the underside along with the pulled pattern on top, colours are described as "coral, turquoise, black and aventurine".

Nice!

I was looking for something else in that book when I spotted it. ;D

Can we have a photo of the pattern from above please? If you place it on something dark it may help to show the colours better.

This is the best I can get just now due to a thunderstorm darkening the sky.
