This large dark green 'tian' bowl, originating from the Savoy/Isère region in the early 20th century, is a rare and striking find. The deep green glaze is an uncommon color for 'tian' bowls, adding to its unique appeal. Traditionally, 'tian' bowls served multiple purposes in the kitchen, from washing vegetables and mixing ingredients to being used as a basin for washing up.
In addition to its practical uses, this bowl would make a lovely addition to any collection of antique pottery. It also doubles as a beautiful decorative piece, particularly when filled with bunches of dried lavender, creating a fragrant and visually pleasing display. The bowl's rustic charm and historical significance make it a standout piece in any home.
