This pottery bowl features a globular silhouette and a sandy, grit-infused texture, offering a grounded aesthetic for curated tabletop displays. 

Hand-thrown with a substantial weight, the vessel is anchored by a raw, ridged base that transitions into a warm ochre glaze. The true character of the piece lies in its bold, gestural cobalt blue application; a primitive saw-tooth motif encircles the collar while large, cryptic symbols dominate the body with an effortless, painterly energy.

Signed by the artist Senty, this bowl is a testament to the Brutalist movement within mid-century studio pottery, where the marriage of raw earth and industrial-strength pigment creates a striking visual tension. The interior is fully glazed, ensuring that while it serves as a powerful sculptural object, it remains a functional piece of art. Whether utilized as a catch-all for a desk or showcased as a standalone curiosity, its tactile nature and mysterious markings invite a sense of reverent history into any modern interior.

This item is vintage, approximately 50 years old. All measurements are close but approximate. I measure in quarter inches.
