Description :

Eclectic collection of vintage hand-painted pottery and decorative vessels in rich cobalt blue, terracotta, cream, black, and earth tones. Includes three small cobalt blue incised vessels, two rounded hand-painted pottery vases, a colorful floral miniature vase, a lidded geometric decorated bowl, and a distinctive conical lidded vessel. Several pieces show hand-applied decoration and individual artisan character, making this an attractive collected grouping for global, folk art, or bohemian décor.

Approx. Measurements: Approx. 2–4" H for smaller vessels; lidded bowl approx. 4–6" W; largest pieces approx. 4–6" H.

Condition: Good vintage condition overall with expected handmade irregularities, surface wear, scratches, and areas of paint or finish loss. Interior of the lidded bowl shows age-related discoloration and a visible hairline crack. Please review photos for individual condition.

Historical Note: This collection reflects several traditions of hand-painted decorative pottery and tourist or folk-art ceramics popular throughout the mid-to-late 20th century. One colorful vessel is visibly marked “Made in India.” The varied forms, incised decoration, geometric patterns, and hand-painted finishes suggest the pieces were collected individually rather than originally produced as a matching set.

Est. Value: 75–125
