Vintage Yellow Cabbage Covered Soup Bowl
With its cheerful color and sculptural charm, this vintage yellow cabbage lidded soup bowl is a delightful example of Portuguese majolica-style earthenware.
Produced by SECLA (Sociedade de Exportação e Cerâmica, S.A.), founded in 1947 in Caldas da Rainha, Portugal, this piece reflects one of the country’s most important 20th-century ceramic traditions. Caldas da Rainha has long been celebrated for its expressive, often naturalistic pottery, and SECLA became especially known for its richly glazed earthenware designed for both everyday use and export abroad.
Formed as a plump, stylized cabbage with beautifully defined veining and softly ruffled edges, the bowl is topped with a fitted lid that completes the sculptural effect. The glossy yellow glaze offers a vibrant twist on classic green cabbage ware, bringing a dash of sunny European charm—and a bit of garden whimsy—to the table.
Strictly limited quantities and subject to prior sale. (At listing, a total of 10 covered soups were available.) Dishes sold individually. In very good vintage condition. 5.25"D x 5.25"H.
