Rice bin c. 20th century

This anonymous ceramic "Rice Bin" from the early 20th century is a delightful example of functional art. The simple, yet cheerful checkerboard design in yellow and white creates a charming visual pattern on this small storage container. The "RICE" inscription in the center of the bin adds to its practicality, making it a perfect addition to any kitchen. The bin's compact size and the classic checkerboard motif ensure that it remains a visually appealing and functional piece. This piece is a part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection.
