This is a great, HUGE, beautifully crafted hand thrown stoneware pottery bowl, which would be fantastic for serving pasta or salad to a crew of a dozen or more, or for placing at the center of.a big farmhouse table and filling with hedge apples, or pinecones and greens, or other fruits of the season...or to place in the entryway for catching newspapers, mail magazines etc.  I think really nothing beats rustic pottery like this for everyday use and enduring beauty. 

14 5/8 across at lip; 7 1/4” tall; 7 1/8” across at base. Great condition, with no chips, cracks or any other flaws that I can find.
