Description
This stoneware bowl is finished in a blue reactive glaze and measures 16cm across and 5cm tall, holding 525ml. That is an everyday bowl size, wide and fairly low, right for a helping of cereal or porridge, a portion of soup, a side salad or a pudding. The walls curve from a narrow foot up to a softly rounded rim, and a shallow ring sits in the centre of the inside. A reactive glaze moves as it fires, so the speckled, mottled surface differs from bowl to bowl and no two are quite alike. It is made entirely of stoneware and weighs 0.474KG.
It belongs on the kitchen table at breakfast and the dining table in the evening. The capacity suits muesli with milk, yoghurt and fruit, a bowl of soup or stew, rice with a curry, or noodles in broth, and the open shape keeps everything within easy reach of a spoon. Stoneware holds heat well, which is welcome on a cold morning with porridge. It suits anyone who wants one dependable bowl for most meals of the day, from a first home to a busy family kitchen, and its quiet, speckled glaze sits as happily on a laid table for guests as it does at a weekday lunch.
It goes in the dishwasher, it goes in the microwave for reheating, and it goes in the oven, so you can warm it before serving or bake eggs or a small crumble in it. The glaze runs over the inside and outside walls, and because each bowl's markings are its own, a few bought together will sit side by side without looking identical. For styling, set it on a plain wooden board or a matt plate in a paler shade so the speckled glaze has room to show, or line a few along an open shelf where the mottled finish becomes part of the kitchen.
