Majolica-Style Grape Vine Footed Compote

This item is a decorative footed ceramic compote or pedestal dish featuring a distinctive ruffled or wavy rim. The piece is constructed from earthenware or glazed ceramic with a prominent creamy white base glaze. The decorative motif consists of hand-painted or transfer-applied grape clusters in shades of deep purple and indigo, accompanied by vibrant green serrated leaves and brown vinery. These motifs are repeat-patterned across the interior bowl, the cylindrical stem, and the domed pedestal base, providing a cohesive aesthetic. The bowl has a dramatic, undulating fluted edge that suggests a Mid-to-Late 20th-century interpretation of classic Italian or Portuguese Majolica pottery. In terms of condition, the glaze appears glossy with no immediate signs of heavy crazing or structural cracks visible, though some minor surface abrasions and light shelf wear on the bottom ring of the base are to be expected. The craftsmanship indicates a commercial production likely intended for decorative kitchenware or as a centerpiece service item. The style is rustic yet refined, typical of Mediterranean-inspired earthenware popularized in the 1970s through the 1990s.
