A shallow, unmarked stoneware dish with olive-green and terracotta glazes, dark speckling, and a broad turned foot.
Listing Description
The surface divides into olive-green and warm terracotta areas, joined by an irregular field of dark speckles. Fine crazing is visible in the green glaze. Concentric turning marks cross the reddish-brown underside; the broad foot ring exposes a lighter buff, finely textured stoneware body with small dark flecks. The photographs support a description of the visible materials and finish, but do not establish a maker, kiln, clay source, date, or whether any glaze effect is ash-derived.
Condition
Condition has not been independently confirmed. Review the dish in hand for chips, cracks, repairs, and glaze wear before publication. Fine crazing is visible in the olive-green glazed area; small rim and glaze irregularities appear in the photographs.
Provenance
Acquired at an estate sale circa 2015. The accompanying cardboard box is unmarked; the dish has no identified signature or maker’s mark.
