Question:
Hi, this bowl was handed down to us several years ago. It was originally bought by my wife’s mother or grandmother, but we don’t really know when. It’s in perfect condition, the base is about 5" diameter, and it has a 12" diameter at the tips of the 16 spikes. The number under the base is M-1482. We’re interested in anything you can tell us about it. Thanks! Steve
Answer: Hello
Charles Murphy designed this piece, along with several others with this spiked style, in 1955. the glaze looks to be a fleck tan. Value is around 65.00, it’s hard to find these with all the points intact. thanks, steve n rose
