Description
This is a small, deep stoneware bowl with its whole outside covered in embossed daisies that stand proud of the surface, so the pattern can be felt as well as seen. It is 14cm across and 6cm tall and holds 350ml, which puts it at cereal or dessert bowl size rather than a serving dish. The outside is a soft pink, the inside is smooth and plain, and a neat foot ring lifts it off the table. Stoneware is fired hard and dense, and at 0.57KG this bowl feels solid in the hand.
We see it first on a child's breakfast table, holding a morning helping of cereal, porridge or yoghurt with fruit. It is just as at home at a playroom table or a little tea party, and it is a cheerful size for an after-school snack of berries, crackers or a few meringues. Grown-ups who like a pretty bowl will want one too, since 350ml is a sensible amount for a pudding, a side salad or a small soup. Round and compact, it sits happily at a child's place setting without crowding the plate and cup beside it.
The embossing covers the bowl from the rim down to the foot, and the glossy glaze thins over the raised petals so each flower reads clearly in the light. Care is simple: it goes in the dishwasher, it can be warmed in the microwave and it can go in the oven as well, so leftovers can be reheated, or a small crumble baked, in the bowl itself. For the prettiest table, set it on a woven placemat or line up a few along a party table, where the raised pink flowers look fresh beside plain white plates and cups.
