Vintage Italian Majolica Floral Lidded Pottery Bowl with Pierced Lid

This piece feels like something you’d find in a tiny Italian kitchen window. The raised flowers and colors are so cheerful and charming, and the pierced lid makes it perfect for potpourri, wrapped candies, or simply as a decorative accent.

DESCRIPTION

A beautiful vintage Italian majolica-style pottery bowl featuring vibrant hand-painted floral relief and a pierced lid.

The bowl is decorated with sculpted flowers and foliage in shades of pink, blue, yellow, and green set against a warm golden yellow background. The openwork floral pattern continues onto the lid, which features a sculpted flower knob at the top.

Majolica pottery is beloved for its richly colored glazes and dimensional decorative surfaces, and this piece captures that charm perfectly. The pierced lid allows fragrance to pass through, making it ideal for potpourri, while the colorful design makes it just as lovely displayed on a shelf, coffee table, or kitchen counter.

Marked "ITALY" on the underside.

Each vintage piece in the shop is selected for its character, color, and the sense of story it brings into a home.
