Illuminate your space with the soft, ethereal beauty of this vintage alabaster compote dish. Hand-carved from a single piece of alabaster, this generously sized bowl features a translucent, milky-white appearance with delicate natural veining that truly comes to life when exposed to light.
With its simple yet elegant form, this piece embodies a timeless, Neoclassical design. The wide, shallow bowl sits gracefully atop a solid, hand-carved pedestal base, giving it a substantial and luxurious feel. The smooth, polished surface is cool to the touch and showcases the natural artistry of the stone.
At 12 inches in diameter, this compote is the perfect size to make a statement as a centerpiece on a dining table, a console, or a coffee table. Use it to display fruit, decorative spheres, crystals, or simply as a striking stand-alone work of art.
This piece is in good vintage condition with a beautiful, aged patina. As with many vintage natural stone items, there are minor surface scuffs, scratches, and a small, subtle pink mark on the underside. These minor signs of its long history do not detract from its overall beauty and serve as a testament to its authentic vintage character.
