Low shallow bowl can be used as a pet bowl - hand painted ceramics - majolica pottery - pottery cat dish - doggy dish - gifts for pets for just $31.00 A majolica cat or doggy dish that was hand made, thrown on the potters wheel then hand painted in the old world decorating technique majolica. For your dear fur baby, cat or dog. One of a kind, decoratively hand painted with elegant vines and leaves pattern makes a lovely dish. Great gifts for pets. Dated and signed at each stage as it was made, by myself. SIZE 1.5" tall, 4.5" across Each piece of pottery is made in my front porch studio. Though small I make it work, but I make in stages. I fill a bisque kiln with green ware, raw dried clay. Once the green ware has gone through a bisque fire and removed from kiln the studio is cleaned up as I prepare to hand dip each piece. I can only dip as many as I have room for, so I may dip a part of the bisque ware at the time and as pieces are finished with painting and put in kiln in wait for the glaze fire, I will then glaze more. When the kiln is full I glaze fire this takes approximately 10 hours plus time to cool, because I like to warm up everything for about 6 hours before raising the temps. I use materials that are food safe, you may want to hand wash as I cannot guarantee their outcome in a dish washer.
