{"product_id":"bea-crackle-stoneware-bowl-30-5cm-cream","title":"Bea Crackle Stoneware Bowl 30.5cm - Cream","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a generous serving bowl in cream stoneware, 30.5cm across and 11cm tall, and it holds 3500ml. Inside, a floral motif of slender stems, sprigs and seed heads fans out from the centre in loose sprays on opposite sides, leaving a clear cream pool in the middle, with a few more sprigs just inside the rim. A fine crackle runs through the glossy surface, a web of hairline lines that catches the light; it is part of the finish, not damage. The outside is plain cream, a smooth, rounded wall rising from a small foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 3500ml this is a bowl for the middle of the table rather than for one portion: a family salad, a big dish of pasta, roast potatoes passed round at Sunday lunch, or a heap of fruit on the kitchen counter between meals. It is as much at home at an everyday supper as at the longer, slower meals when friends come round. When it is not in use, the motif inside makes it worth keeping out on an open shelf or a kitchen dresser, propped or placed where the inside of the bowl can be seen, rather than hidden away in a cupboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 100% stoneware and weighs 2KG, so it sits steadily on the table and is best carried with two hands when full. Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, and this bowl goes in the dishwasher, which matters for a piece this size. It does not go in the microwave or the oven, so cook elsewhere and bring the food to the table in it; it is a bowl for serving, not for reheating. For styling, let the cream and the sprigs do the work: pile it high with salad leaves or whole fruit and stand it on a bare wooden table or a plain linen cloth, where the motif has room to show.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Stoneware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCream\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3500ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDishwasher safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicrowave safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOven safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFood safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is the bowl and how much does it hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 30.5cm across and 11cm tall and holds 3500ml, which makes it a large serving bowl for salads, pasta or fruit rather than an individual bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it go in the dishwasher?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
