Description
This is a wide, shallow bowl in green glass, and its shape is the reason to choose it. The outline is irregular, and the glass forms layered, rippled rings, each with its own wavy edge, that step down to a deeper green at the centre. The surface is textured all over, so the glass catches light unevenly across every ring and no two angles look quite alike. It measures 38cm long, 29cm wide and 7cm tall. That makes it a broad, low piece rather than a deep mixing bowl, and at 1.3KG it has real weight in the hand.
It can go to work at the table: fruit on the kitchen island, bread or crackers at a dinner party, or a spread of sweets for guests. Between meals it makes a centrepiece for a dining table or a coffee table. It is also wide enough to gather keys, sunglasses and post on a hallway console. Its low profile keeps the view across the table clear, which matters when people sit facing each other. It suits anyone who likes a piece that works as serving glassware and as decoration at once, and it makes a considered gift for a new home or a generous host.
The finish is spray coloured, and the care is gentle. The maker recommends handwashing and asks that you use no aggressive detergents or abrasive agents, so a soft cloth and a mild washing-up liquid suit it best. It is not for the dishwasher, the microwave or the oven, which keeps it to serving and display. For styling, set it where daylight reaches it, such as a sideboard near a window, so light picks out the layered edges. Then leave it empty to show off the rippled glass, or fill it with a pile of lemons.
