Description
This cream stoneware serving bowl brings a cheerful robin to the Christmas table. In the centre of the bowl sits a small illustration of a robin with a bright red breast and a warm brown back, with the word SEASONS lettered over the bird and GREETINGS beneath it. Around the rim runs a row of rounded beads, a raised border that catches the light and gives the bowl a soft, cottage look. It is round, measuring 28.7cm across and 6.5cm deep, giving a broad, shallow well with plenty of room for food without towering over the table.
A shallow bowl of this width is a natural fit for Christmas lunch and the gatherings around it. We would use it for roast potatoes, buttery sprouts or a heap of stuffing passed down the table, then bring it back out on Boxing Day for salads, cold cuts and crisps. Away from the meal it makes a fine centrepiece on a dresser or kitchen island, holding clementines, nuts in their shells or a few pine cones. Because the robin sits small in the middle rather than across the whole surface, the bowl looks just as good half full as it does piled high, and the cream finish sits comfortably beside both white and patterned tableware.
The bowl is made from stoneware, a type of ceramic, with a smooth, glossy cream finish and the beaded border running unbroken around the edge. To keep the robin and the finish looking their best, we suggest washing it gently by hand in warm soapy water, drying it with a soft cloth and avoiding scouring pads that could dull the surface. It makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, and we like it set on a green runner with a sprig of holly beside it for a simple, warm festive table.
