Safiye, handmade turkish bowl in lead-free ceramics
The handmade Turkish bowl is lead and cadmium free and hence it is food safe. The bowl measures 25 cm in diameter, is 9 cm in height and weighs approximately 1100 gr.
The handmade Safiye bowl is decorated with beautiful motifs of tulips and carnations in blue, red and turquoise colors on a dark turquoise – green backdrop. The illustration is inspired by the symbol for the “Tree of life” and is handmade with a careful sense of artistic poetry. The gorgeous decorations make this ceramic bowl ideal for décor as well as for serving food, salad, and fruits or maybe for displaying potpourri, aromatic soaps, and fragrance bags in your bathroom.
The Safiye bowl is a unique piece of ceramic handicraft, with a historic touch. Hence, especially floral motifs have been a valued theme in Turkish handicrafts through centuries – not the least in the Ottoman period, where particularly the tulip were prized in line with precious metal.
Kütahya ceramics
The ceramic bowl is handmade in Kütahya, an area of Turkey well known for their techniques, traditions and designs in ceramic art and craftmanship. Where the renowned Iznik workshops were closely connected to the royal court, the artisans in Kütahya mainly produced elegant and sophisticated household ceramics to the higher middle class. Through the last centuries, Kütahya has developed into a major ceramic area, famous for their outstanding quality and breathtaking designs and handicraft.
At Malukka, we have chosen to present carefully selected and handmade ceramics from Kütahya, with a special focus on an inspiring and aesthetic design, a meticulous handiwork and good quality.
