Description
This is a small stoneware bowl with a floral motif of fine sprigs running around its outside, standing on a neat foot. It measures 11.5cm across and 6.5cm tall and holds 300ml, which puts it firmly in small bowl territory: right for a morning portion of yoghurt and fruit, a side of rice or a dessert, rather than a big bowl of soup. The colour is a soft beige, plain inside, so whatever you serve sits against a quiet background while the sprigs on the outside do the decorating. It weighs 0.27KG.
We like it most at breakfast and for the smaller things at a meal: olives, nuts, dips and sauces for sharing, a scoop of ice cream, or berries set out for everyone to help themselves. It is approved for food, so it goes straight from the kitchen counter to the dining table, and its size suits a kitchen shelf or a dresser where everyday pieces are kept close at hand. It makes a thoughtful present for anyone who enjoys laying a pretty table, perhaps given alongside a jar of honey or homemade jam.
Stoneware is a dense ceramic fired at high temperature, and it holds heat well. Care is simple: the bowl can go in the dishwasher with the rest of the everyday crockery. It is not suitable for the microwave or the oven, so warm food in a pan or another dish first and spoon it in afterwards. For styling, set several side by side on a linen runner at breakfast, or stack a few on an open shelf where the floral motif can be seen from across the room. The styling props shown are not included.

Frequently Asked
How much does the bowl hold?
It holds 300ml, which makes it a small bowl, well suited to yoghurt, desserts, dips, nuts or a side of rice rather than a large main meal.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
Yes. The bowl can go in the dishwasher, so it can be washed along with the rest of your everyday crockery after a meal.
Can I use it in the microwave or the oven?
No. It is not suitable for the microwave or the oven, so warm food separately first and serve it in the bowl afterwards.
How big is it?
It is 11.5cm across and 6.5cm tall and weighs 0.27KG, a compact size for breakfast tables, side dishes and small servings.
What material is it?
It is made of 100% stoneware, a dense ceramic, and it is approved for food, so it can be used for serving and eating every day.
Is the floral motif on the inside as well?
No. The floral motif runs around the outside of the bowl, while the inside is plain beige, so food sits against a calm background.
