This vintage Art Deco ceramic bowl, attributed to the renowned Czech company Ditmar Urbach, dates back to the 1930s. The piece features a beautifully modeled polar bear on a textured, icy terrain with a central bowl that serves as a dish or vide-poche. It is believed to have been created in tribute to Nora, the first polar bear in the Prague Zoo. This sculpture-like bowl has a unique, colorful glaze that mimics a glacier's cool tones of aqua, turquoise, white, and gray.
Its versatile design allows it to function as a decorative catch-all dish or a centerpiece .
There is graze damage to the right ear (please see pic for detail) otherwise in unmarked vintage condition.
