Have you ever seen an accessory, chair, fabric, that you like and then it seems to pop up everywhere and haunt you?
That's how I feel about the bubble bowl. Love it. 
It shows up when I least expect it. 
And I can't seem to track it down. 
Doesn't it look like something Jonathan Adler would make? Maybe he did make it. 
They remind me of this little bowl I bought at my favorite thrift store. It's pretty close isn't it?
So what about the original? Can you guys help me? Any info?

ReplyDeleteOh, I love YOURS.
ReplyDeletehow the heck do you notice these things??? guess that's why your house looks one way and mine another! LOL
ReplyDeletei love yours so much better! the other looks like it may have warts! lol
ReplyDeleteyours is my fav
ReplyDeleteWish I could help you with the provenance of your bubble bowl, although I'm with everyone else. I think yours is adorable. I know it will haunt you until you find it though, so hopefully one of your dear readers can help you!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI have been love with the pottery ever since I saw it in Cottage Living I believe. It's made in France and it's called Astier DeVillatte.
They sell it at a store called Trove in Laguna Beach Ca. I live in Boston so I haven't seen it in person.
It's pricy but amazing.
Hope that Helps

I have one and love it. Mine is made by Astier de Villatte. I have a few accesories made by them to go with my plain white china. However, I think the two planters in the first picture is made by someone else. And yours is a great find, good job.
ReplyDeleteNew take on milk glass...how creative!
ReplyDeleteI like your thrifing piece better. The other bubble bowl looks like it is trying to grow a new leg or arms. Your truly looks like bubbles. You got a good deal and a piece you love. Good treasure hunting on your part. Happy Tues. kathysue
ReplyDeleteThey sell Astier de Villatte here in Birmingham at Table Matters. Love their stuff--- but yes, a little pricey!
ReplyDeleteI agree, yours is more subdued. But I do like the modern hobnail, it's so exaggerated and fun.
ReplyDeletevery cool, gal. I'm gonna be on the look out for one of these, a thrift-store version, like yours, of course.
ReplyDeleteyou do have a good eye...
i have one..made by astier..but the 'knock-off' you see a bunch was from west elm!
ReplyDeletecan't help you, but it is cute! and your thrift store version is just about a dead-ringer!
ReplyDeleteOMG...Sissy...this is going to drive me crazy...swear that I just saw something just like that...question is where! aarrrgh!
ReplyDeleteOhh, I love the exagerrated shape of those bubbles!
ReplyDeleteOh I love Astier de Villate! Wish I could fill my home with their lovely pieces! Your thrift store find is fantastic and looks amazing with flowers!
ReplyDeletegreat find lady! you are so good.
ReplyDeleteI'd say yours looks just like it! BTW, I keep thinking of your blog these days because the hydrangeas that I found at our new house have now bloomed and it turns out most of them are blue! I'm dying of happiness. :)
ReplyDeleteLove that bowl - looks like you may need to re mortage the house for though! (would be worth it!) KG
ReplyDeleteHow chic!! I love it too! Very milk glassish!
