<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 4549084, member: 10944"]Thanks. I’ll try to post photos in good light. I like celadon to begin with so maybe I’m biased but I love this bowl. It’s so tactile and has a pretty crackle glaze. I’m actually curious about putting pottery like this in the dishwasher. I can’t imagine it’s a great idea. Anyone have experience or a good answer for that? I HATE doing dishes but would love to use this bowl. My first job as a kid was as a dishwasher and it turned me off for life. Speaking of free it turns out the story is better and I had forgotten. I bought four pieces of Belleek as part of my quick cheap offers before leaving after my initial picks. They said “ohthose teacups over there are Belleek too, why don’t you take them”. So I did. Then they said “you know the saucers for them are in the basement, I know where they are you should take those too”. So I grabbed them and more teacups in a cabinet in the basement. No extra charge. They looked very much like Lenox more than Belleek so maybe that’s why no one took them for a bargain. So yeh bought Belleek and they offered me more free Belleek. Went to basement to find my free Belleek and found this free celadon bowl. I paid up decently on my main purchase and then he/they gave me the rest dirt cheap plus these bonuses. </p><p><br /></p><p>I did find out just now that Belleek and Lenox seemed to have a partnership at some point so maybe that’s why these pieces resembled Lenox so much. I’ll have to check marks tomorrow. I didn’t even inspect them yet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
