About the Item

This provencal glazed terracotta bowl, hailing from 19th-century France, is a stunning example of traditional French craftsmanship. Often referred to as a "dough bowl," it was originally used for kneading and mixing bread dough. The terracotta bowl is beautifully glazed in a hard-to-find green, giving it a rich, earthy character that reflects the rustic charm of the French countryside. Its generous size and classic design make it perfect as a decorative piece or for functional use in the kitchen. The bowl's history and patina offer a glimpse into a time when such items were essential household tools, adding a touch of vintage French elegance to any space.
