Pfaltzgraff 'Naturewood' Large Serving Bowl

This is a large, deep-sided ceramic serving bowl from the Pfaltzgraff 'Naturewood' collection. The bowl is constructed from high-fired stoneware, showcasing a creamy white to off-white glazed base. The exterior features a prominent decorative band beneath the rim, depicting a botanical motif of realistic acorns, pine needles, and small red berries in earthy tones of green, brown, tan, and rust. This central band is bracketed by secondary borders: a thin crimson line at the top rim and a complex geometric sequence at the bottom consisting of a blue and yellow triangular saw-tooth pattern over a classic black and white checkered line. The bowl sits on a defined pedestal foot. The glaze appears bright with a high-gloss finish, reflecting light clearly without apparent crazing or surface scratches. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear to the decal imagery, indicating the piece has been well-maintained. This pattern was highly popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s, characterizing a rustic, lodge-inspired aesthetic. The craftsmanship is consistent with mass-produced premium dinnerware, featuring uniform wall thickness and a smooth, even application of the decorative wrap.
