Maya Bowl 16.5cm - Assorted Designs

The price is for one bowl, sold in the carton quantity shown; it comes in three designs, shown together in the photographs, and the design you receive cannot be chosen. Whichever arrives, it is a deep, rounded stoneware bowl, 16.5cm across and 7.5cm tall, that holds 800ml. That is a proper everyday portion: room for a full serving of soup, porridge or noodle broth, while staying compact enough to sit beside a dinner plate. The multicoloured decoration covers the outside, with small daisy-like flowers on one design, rows of chevrons and dots on another and fan-shaped sprigs on the third.

This is a bowl for the kitchen and the dining table. It suits breakfast cereal and yoghurt in the morning, a side salad or a helping of pasta at supper, and fruit or snacks laid out for the household. Because it goes in the microwave, leftovers can be reheated in the bowl itself, and because it goes in the oven, it will take a small baked pudding or a gratin for one. The patterns are lively enough to brighten a plain table and gentle enough to sit alongside simple crockery, so it suits a relaxed family kitchen, a holiday cottage or a first home filling its cupboards.

It is made of 100% stoneware and finished with a decal print with handpainted details. Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, and it holds heat well. Care is straightforward: it goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so it can move from cooking to table to washing-up without fuss. At 0.486KG it feels substantial in the hand without being a burden to carry. For styling, group several together on an open shelf or a dresser, where the all-over pattern gives a run of bowls plenty of colour. The styling props shown are not included.
