    ETA: SOLVED by user below! This is a bowl made by Cyprus Handicraft Studios, a government-funded workshop that makes textiles, pottery etc. in traditional means. I found an Etsy seller who described it as a “boat bowl”, with one figure helming the boat and the rest hanging out being joyful sailors. Explains the birds!

    ***

    I just love this, but I don’t know anything about it. If you can help out with information about anything, including guesses or technique stuff, please do!

    Very finely glazed, with a slight metallic ring when hit.

      It’s made by Carl Harry Stålhane a Swedish artist. His more simple pieces are around $1000 to $1200. I would be curious myself to see a value on this piece. Hope that helps

      The style and markings are consistent with handmade folk pottery made via the Cyprus Handicraft Service:
