Jan van der Vaart’s "Bowl" (1969–1975) is a 10.5 x 14.9 x 14.9 cm porcelain piece with a striking bronze glaze.

Its cylindrical form showcases van der Vaart’s minimalist approach, while the metallic finish adds depth and texture, creating a captivating interplay of light and shadow. The bowl is signed underneath with “V D VAART,” a wheel mark, and the type number “N.50,” indicating its potential as a prototype or unique creation. This piece reflects van der Vaart’s innovative blend of functionality and sculptural artistry, aligning with his modernist ethos. Its industrial yet refined aesthetic makes it a compelling example of mid-century modern ceramics and a testament to van der Vaart’s lasting influence in the field.
