Description
Christmas breakfasts and suppers feel more festive with these four green stoneware bowls, each 13cm across and 7.5cm tall and holding 500ml. Around the outside runs a band of little angel mice with haloes and wings, some playing trumpets and harps, one wearing a crown of candles, all walking beneath a scalloped border just under the rim. Inside, each bowl is glazed in a deep contrasting tone, so the pattern stays on the outside and your food sits against a plain, glossy surface.
At 500ml, this is a generous everyday bowl size: right for porridge or cereal in the morning, a bowl of soup at lunch, or a helping of trifle or Christmas pudding with custard after the big meal. Laid at each place on the Christmas table, the four bowls give a family or a small gathering of guests a matching festive touch, and they work just as well on a sideboard holding nuts, clementines or sweets for people to help themselves. They also make a cheerful present for anyone setting up a home in time for December.
Stoneware is dense and hard-wearing, and these bowls are finished in a glaze that gives them a smooth, glossy surface. They go in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven, so you can reheat soup, warm leftovers or bake a small crumble in the bowl you serve from, then load it straight into the dishwasher afterwards. A narrow foot lifts each bowl slightly off the table and the rounded sides show the band of mice all the way round. For styling, stack the four together on an open shelf between meals, or set them on plain plates over a linen cloth and let the mice do the talking; the styling props shown are not included.
