Description
This green stoneware bowl is 16cm across and 5cm tall and holds 525ml. Its finish is a reactive glaze, and across one side runs a diagonal band in a second tone with a fine ridged texture, edged with a speckled line where the green glaze breaks. A reactive glaze shifts as it fires, so no two pieces leave the kiln quite alike, and the rim is softly uneven rather than a machined circle. At 0.478KG it is a solid, substantial piece for its size.
At 525ml this is a proper everyday bowl: the right size for breakfast cereal or porridge, a portion of soup, a side salad or a helping of pasta for one. The low, open shape makes it comfortable to use at the kitchen table, and it works just as well for olives, nuts or crisps when friends visit. It suits a relaxed kitchen or a dining table laid for a long weekend lunch, and anyone who prefers tableware with a little variation and character to rows of identical plain pieces.
The bowl is 100% stoneware, a clay fired at high temperatures that comes out dense and hard-wearing. It is approved for food use and goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so it can warm leftovers through or bake an individual crumble and then go from oven to table. Treat the variation in the glaze as part of its appeal rather than a flaw: the point at which the green breaks will differ from bowl to bowl. For styling, line a few up on an open shelf with the textured band facing outwards, or set one on a plain plate and let the glaze carry the table. The styling props shown are not included.

It is 100% stoneware finished in a reactive glaze. Stoneware is a dense, hard-wearing clay that suits daily use.
