TRANSPARENT DIMPLE PATTERNED BOWL

by PAUL WASHBURN
(WASHINGTON STATE USA)

i HAVE NOT FOUND ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THIS UNUSUAL PATTERN
WHICH INCORPORATES APPLE SEED SIZED "DIMPLES' WHICH ARE TRANSLUCENT. I AM NOT AN EXPERT BUT LOOK FOR SPECIAL PORCELAIN ITEMS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS SPECIAL TREATMENT. THESE DIMPLES ARE PLACED IN ORDER AS PART OF THE PAINTED EMBELLISHMENTS OF OF THE TOTAL PATTERN. I HAVE ALSO BEEN UNABLE TO CONNECT THE POTTERS MARK TO A FACTORY. IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY DELICATE, THIN AND OF VERY HIGH QUALITY. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE PATTERN COLORS ARE APPLIED BY HAND IN A "BURST" PATTERN AROUND THESE DIMPLES IN TWO DIFFERENT REPEATING STYLES AND HAVE ACCENTS IN GOLD. PLEASE ENJOY THESE PHOTOS OF THE BOWL AND PLEASE FEEL FREE TO GIVE YOUR THOUGHTS AND ESPECIALLY THE ORIGINS OF THE DIMPLE PATTERN TECHNIQUES AND COUNTRY OF ORIGIN.
