This collection features one large serving bowl and five smaller individual bowls, each beautifully crafted in the shape and design of a vibrant watermelon.
The majolica-style glaze provides a glossy, high-shine finish that highlights the bright, hand-painted pink interior with black "seeds."

A Note on the Unique Texture:
What makes this set truly special is the exceptional, rare texture. The exterior is deeply molded and embossed, capturing the realistic, dimensional look of a watermelon rind. This detailed, sculptural quality gives the bowls a unique feel and visual appeal that stands out from typical flat ceramic serveware.
This is a true vintage set, signed and dated by the artist (marks read "OS©M 79" and initials "RK" on the base for the smaller bowls and RK on the larger bowl base). It is a unique and collectible example of American art pottery from the late 1970s.
