Axel Salto

produced by Royal Copenhagen, Denmark

Overall very good original condition. This bowl has been examined under black light and shows no evidence of prior restoration. With one small area of imperfection to the glaze measuring approximately ½ inch in length and located two inches from the underbase, possibly inherent in the firing process. The rim is ever so slightly out of round inherent in the handmade construction of the piece. The exterior showing a chevron pattern comprising brilliant hues of rich browns, cobalt blue and green. The interior continues the blue hues ranging from sky blue to a rich midnight blue along the rim. A wonderfully detailed glaze throughout.
