Description
This is a wide, shallow serving bowl in white stoneware, 29cm across and 6cm tall, with fine fluted lines that radiate from the centre to the rim inside and run down the outer wall. The fluting is what you notice first: it catches the light and gives a plain white piece real texture, so it never looks flat on the table. The rim is softly uneven, with a gently wavy outline that keeps the bowl feeling relaxed rather than formal. Stoneware is fired hard and dense, which gives it a reassuring weight; this bowl weighs 1.32KG and sits steadily wherever it is placed.
At 29cm across it is a sharing size rather than a single portion: a bowl for the middle of the table, ready for a green salad, a tumble of pasta, roasted vegetables or a pile of fruit. Its shallow form shows off whatever it holds, which suits a kitchen table, a dining room sideboard or a long weekend lunch with friends. Between meals it makes a decorative bowl for a coffee table or console, holding lemons, cuttings from the garden or nothing at all, and letting the fluted glaze do the work.
It goes in the dishwasher, so everyday use is easy. It is not for the microwave or the oven, so serve warm food into it straight from the pan rather than reheating or baking in it. The glaze has a soft sheen over the fluting, and the lines give the surface a gentle ridged feel under the fingers. For styling, let it be the one textured piece on a plain linen cloth or a bare wooden table, and keep its contents simple: a single kind of fruit or a heap of salad leaves looks better in this bowl than a crowded mix.
