Living Art Azure Blue and White Lidded Bowl

At 13 cm tall and 12 cm wide, this Living Art Azure lidded bowl, with its deep cobalt body, white floral-style decoration, and sculpted flower-shaped lid, brings a contemporary Australian design sensibility to the blue and white ceramic tradition, the flower-shaped lid giving the piece a sculptural quality that makes it as much a decorative object as a functional one.

Made by Living Art, an Australian ceramic design brand, this lidded bowl is part of the Azure range, which takes the enduring blue and white colour palette of the East Asian and European ceramic traditions and reinterprets it in a contemporary idiom. The deep cobalt body, with its white floral-style decoration, draws on the visual language of traditional blue and white porcelain while the sculpted flower-shaped lid, which serves as both a functional cover and a decorative element in its own right, gives the piece a distinctly contemporary character that distinguishes it from purely traditional blue and white ceramics. The quality of the ceramic body and the finish of the glaze are consistent with the Living Art brand's positioning in the contemporary decorative ceramics market. The piece is in very good condition throughout.
