Light Blue Transfer Ware Bowl

Update! The cable guy knocked it off my desk!

I have been emptying my storage space slowly, opening boxes that I packed way back in 2011. This bowl was in one of those boxes. I had forgotten all about it, can't remember where I got it, but know that it is has always been one of my favorite possessions.

I decided it was important to learn where it was made, when it was made and who made it. Without any markings at all, I am striking out in Google searches. One thing that google searches can't add to the search tool is the weight of the piece, the feel of the glaze, the sound when you flick it with your fingernail.

This is a rather crude piece, with an imperfect match of the decoration along the rim. If you look carefully at the bottom center, you will see where the transfer paper did not continue, leave a harsh break in the pattern.

And it doesn't show in the first photo but here in this one, I have managed to capture the reflections that show the bumps in the glaze, bumps that almost look like big bits of dust that got glazed over. Or are they air bubbles?

This is not a large bowl, it only measures 6" across and the rim stand 1.5" off the table. It is a perfect size for candy or nuts or a trinket dish for your bureau to hold hairpins, your watch, your rings.

Happy 90th birthday to Kim Novak.

Probably my favourite of her films is this sudser from 1960 with Kirk Douglas, Barbara Rush (still alive), Nancy Kovack (still alive), Walter Matthau & Ernie Kovacs. This one has a Novak, a Kovack & a Kovacs.

Two Cypriot Greek Australian sisters created a beautiful recipe book for their Greek grandma's recipes. They recreated all the dishes themselves to confirm the measurements because Greek grandma's cook "with their heart", not measures. There are Greek measuring cups, however! They are very made of glass and they're shown on the video.
