The bowl, showing the cobalt interior.
Here is an example of Bauer by Wright at its best. The bowl is massive, and has the feel of being as dense as granite. The exterior is a wonderful smooth glossy gray-white glaze, which, continuing into the bowl, grades into the deepest of cobalt blue, with a metallic overspray in the very center.
The signature and Bauer name are evident on the unglazed base.
8" L x 7" W x 4" high, but its measurements scarcely convey its mass: weight, approx. 6 lbs.
