Description

The listing, Large Italian porcelain bowl with fruits has ended.

A very unique collectible & vintage decorative large white porcelain bowl with fruits.
It was bought for +/- 650,000.00Lirette(+/- $450) more than 10 years ago in Squinzano, (Lecce) Italy, but do not know the brand or the maker. (Pic# 5)
A very common used decorative center piece for Mediterranean living room tables.
It measures a diameter of 19 inches, a height of 8 inches and it weights more than 15 lb.
I have tried my best to get close up pictures, because I want the Listia members to know; a small edge of the bowl was damaged, so it is a broken edge measuring roughly 3 inches long and 1 inch deep.(Check Pic# 3) But the design of the bowl, which looks like a canister with curved basket weaving edges, and with bright fruit colors, makes this damage not that noticeable.
It is indeed an amazing piece of art for decoration and/or for collection.
Shipping cost is $ 21.95 flat. sorry, but this item is very heavy( over 15 lb.) I accept Paypal only for the shipping charges.

Questions & Comments

You really paid so much for this, 450$ for pre Euro standard for a plate of fake fruits, but anyway best of luck, here on Listia you will get only credit for this beautiful but costly decoration set.

True! I have tried on eBay, but no luck! That broken edge, I am guessing it does scare buyers away!. I wish they knew that, that broken corner does not affect the beauty of this piece at all! And I do not feel to throw this beauty away! I have downsized & have no room for it.
