Description
This pair of hand-decorated stoneware bowls is multicoloured, and each bowl carries its own pattern: one has a flower motif at its centre with a wavy line circling the inside, and the other has a spiral that winds inwards from near the rim. At 12cm across and 4.5cm tall, with a capacity of 200ml, these are small serving bowls rather than cereal bowls, sized for the little extras that go round the table. Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, which suits pieces that are used and washed often.
We use them for olives, nuts, dips, sauces and dressings, or a small scoop of ice cream after dinner. Because the two designs differ, you can set one at each end of a table, or give two people their own dip at a sharing supper. They sit happily in a kitchen, on a dining table or out on a garden table in summer. They also make a thoughtful gift for someone setting up a first home, or for anyone who loves cooking for friends. The styling props shown are not included.
Each bowl is 100% stoneware and finished by hand. Hand decoration is never perfectly uniform, so expect small differences in the brushwork from one bowl to the next. Care is straightforward: they go in the dishwasher, they can go in the microwave to warm a sauce, and they can go in the oven, so a baked dip can come straight to the table. For a relaxed table, set the pair on a woven placemat or a wooden board beside plainer tableware, and let the two patterns do the talking.

Frequently Asked
How big are these bowls?
Each bowl is 12cm across and 4.5cm tall and holds 200ml, a small serving size for olives, nuts, dips and sauces rather than a cereal bowl.
Can the bowls go in the dishwasher?
Yes. The maker states they can go in the dishwasher, so clearing away after a meal with friends is easy.
Can I use them in the microwave or the oven?
Yes, the maker states both. You can warm a sauce in the microwave or bake a small dip in the oven and bring it straight to the table.
What material are the bowls?
They are 100% stoneware, decorated by hand. Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing material that suits bowls used and washed every day.
