Description
This is a shallow stoneware bowl, 18.5cm across and 5cm tall, with a capacity of 350ml. Its blue reactive glaze is what makes it: the colour gathers at the rim and runs inward in fine streaks, fading to a paler, softly speckled centre. The rim follows an irregular, organic line rather than a perfect circle, and underneath, the bowl stands on small feet that lift it just clear of the table. It is made entirely of stoneware and weighs 0.498KG, solid in the hand without feeling heavy.
At 350ml it is an everyday serving size rather than a deep soup bowl: right for breakfast cereal or yoghurt with fruit, a side salad, a small portion of soup or a dish of olives to share. The shallow, open shape puts whatever you serve on show, which makes it as useful in the middle of the table as at a single place setting. It belongs in the kitchen and on the dining table, from a quick weekday breakfast to a long dinner with friends, and it suits anyone who prefers tableware with a little irregularity and character over perfectly uniform pieces. On the kitchen counter between meals it makes a good home for fruit.
Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, and this bowl goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven and is made for use with food, so it can warm in the oven or reheat in the microwave, come to the table and then go straight into the dishwasher. A reactive glaze shifts as it fires, so the streaks and the depth of blue differ from one bowl to the next and yours will be entirely its own. To style it, set it on a plain plate or a linen napkin so the glaze has room to show, or line up two or three along the table for a relaxed, generous look.

Frequently Asked
What is the bowl made of?
It is made of 100% stoneware and finished in a blue reactive glaze, which gives each bowl its own pattern of streaks.
Can it go in the dishwasher and the microwave?
Yes. It goes in the dishwasher and the microwave, and it can go in the oven too, so warming food and washing up are simple.
How big is it and how much does it hold?
It is 18.5cm across and 5cm tall and holds 350ml, a good size for cereal, yoghurt, a side salad or a small portion of soup.
Will my bowl look exactly the same as every other one?
No. A reactive glaze changes as it fires, so the streaks and the depth of blue vary a little from one bowl to the next.
