Vintage Puidgemont Hand Painted Fishbowl with Blue Fish Motif

Bring a splash of Mediterranean artistry into your home with this vintage Puidgemont hand painted fishbowl. Made in Spain by the renowned Puidgemont studio, the bowl captures the studio’s love of marine life and expressive brushwork. Measuring 24 cm in diameter and 4 cm in height, it is a striking decorative piece and a practical serving dish.

The design features a bold blue fish motif painted with sweeping strokes of cobalt and navy, accented by earthy greens and ochres. Fine hand drawn details give the fish a sense of movement, while a softly speckled glaze adds texture and depth. The unglazed underside reveals the natural terracotta body, a hallmark of Puidgemont’s mid twentieth century studio pottery.

This bowl is as functional as it is beautiful. Use it to serve fruit or salads, or display it as a wall plate or table centrepiece where its vivid marine scene can be admired. It pairs effortlessly with other Spanish ceramics, brass candlesticks or vintage glassware, adding colour and character to both modern and traditional interiors.

Dating from the mid twentieth century, the piece reflects the artistry and craftsmanship for which Puidgemont is celebrated. Each brushstroke is unique, and the combination of strong colour and natural texture ensures that no two pieces are ever exactly alike.

Condition is very good for its age. There is light wear to the glaze consistent with vintage use but no chips or cracks. The photographs give a true representation of its rich palette and gently aged character.

Whether you are a collector of Spanish ceramics or simply wish to bring the energy of the sea indoors, this Puidgemont fishbowl offers beauty, heritage and timeless appeal.
