About this Item
Olifantsfontein, South Africa 1943-1955
Bowl, raised on low foot
'LINN WARE' painted in oxide script on the underside
double-glazed, hand-thrown earthenware

Notes
The swirling, blue colour palette sometimes referred to as 'jacaranda blue', was achieved using cobalt oxide in a transparent glaze.
The signature innovation of double-glazing, resulted in enhanced depth and luminosity for which Linn Ware became renowned.
