Offered is a vintage handcrafted Papier-mâché decorative pedestal bowl. It bears an illegible artist's maker's mark on the bottom.
Perhaps a student piece, or a souvenir from a trip abroad, the bowl is made with strips of layered paper and decorated with abstract painted flower petals done in earth tones. It is imperfect and somewhat "Wabi Sabi" (a Japanese aesthetic and philosophical worldview centered on the acceptance of imperfection, transience, and simplicity) in its composition and style.
Measures: 9.75" in diameter, 2.5" tall, and has a flat round base that is 4.25" in diameter.
