19th Century French Green Glazed Terracotta "Tian" Bowl from Provence

About the Item

This large antique "Tian" (Provencal term for serving bowl), was crafted in Provence, southern France circa 1880. Round in shape, the handmade terracotta bowl has a subtle green glaze on the inside with natural earthenware finish on the outside. Use this important dish as a centerpiece on a dining table filled with fruit or vegetable, or dress this jardiniere with a flower arrangement. The wide decorative vessel is in good condition commensurate with age and use, and adorns a rich patinated glazed green finish. A few chips here and there see detailed images, but that is what makes the charm of a piece this age. Measures: 30" diameter 11" height.
