Description
This is a wide, shallow serving bowl in cream stoneware, 29cm across and 6.5cm tall, with a lobster motif set in the centre of its well. It holds 1920ml, which makes it a sharing bowl for the middle of the table rather than a bowl for one. The low sides curve gently up to a plain rim, and the cream glaze carries a fine speckle that gives the surface real depth. Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, and at 1.62KG this bowl feels properly substantial in the hands.
Its low, open shape suits dishes that deserve an audience: a summer salad, a tangle of pasta, roast vegetables, or a heap of mussels and prawns for a seafood supper, with the lobster coming into view as the bowl empties. It belongs on the kitchen table for a long weekend lunch and on the dining table when friends visit, and the motif brings an easy seaside feel that suits a coastal cottage as well as a town flat. Because it is food safe, you can dress a salad in it, toss it at the table and serve straight from it, so there is one less dish to wash.
The finish is a reactive glaze with an overlaying glass component. Reactive glazes vary by nature from piece to piece, so the speckle and shading on your bowl will be its own. It is dishwasher safe, so after a meal it goes straight in with the plates. That glass component is also why the oven and the microwave are not recommended: warm dishes should be cooked in a pan or tray and then spooned into the bowl to serve. The styling props shown are not included. On a bare wooden table the cream glaze looks warm and soft, so give it the centre spot with a pair of wooden servers beside it and a few lemons nearby.
