Large terracotta slip ware dairy bowl (or proofing bowl or pancheon bowl), with provenance. briefcase waxed and ready to goMy Dad fondly remembers my Gran making dandelion wine with this bowl in the front room of their cottage in the village of Quainton, Buckinghamshire, England. A large terracotta slip ware dairy type bowl, at least very early 20th century, probably more like the 1880s. In very good condition considering age, just the expected wear and tear and a very small hairline crack on the rim, but of no significance, just mentioned for transparency see photos.
