A striking 11-inch round flow blue serving bowl features a Delft-inspired scene. The blue ink is deep and vibrant, and the patina, characterized by crazing and discoloration, adds a beautiful, antique charm. This bowl was cherished by its previous owner, as evidenced by the metal staples used to repair it.
 
The mark on the back is difficult to read. I believe it reads Sebring Porcelain (although it’s stoneware and NOT porcelain). The design is very similar to one produced in France by Lebeau Porcelaine. Lebeau began in France in 1879 and a branch of the business opened in Sebring, OH in late 19th early 20th century. If it had been produced by Lebeau after 1892, it would have had been marked “France”, which it is not.  
 
MEASUREMENTS
 
11” (28.0 cm) diameter x 2 ¾” (7.0 cm) deep. Weighs 2 lbs 0.7 oz (925 g)
 
CONDITION
 
It has a long crack extending from the rim to nearly the center of the bowl, as well as a chip in the foot where the crack passes through. There are four old metal stables in the well to prevent the crack from spreading. There are no rim chips but there is one glaze chip on the blue border. The glazing is very crazed and discoloration on the upper portions of the outside.
 
A well-loved serving bowl with an interesting history that illustrates the linkages between American and European ceramic producers in the late 19th Century.
