Red fish shaped dish.

















So, to continue the fishy theme, here's one I caught recently.

This small fish-shaped dish is quite nicely made. I don't know a lot about it really. I suspect it could be from Italy. Perhaps it was made as a tourist gift item around the 1970s. Even so, the strong colours, fine line work and the addition of the white slip dots make it a pleasing object to look at – so into the Potshots collection it goes.

More fish coming soon.
