Know before you buy
The bowl measures 10 inches in diameter and 4.75 inches in height. It has a generous capacity of 117 ounces, making it well-suited for large family-style salads or side dishes.
Yes, this bowl is crafted from durable earthenware designed for functional, daily use. While it is sturdy, earthenware is a porous ceramic, so it should be handled with the same care you would give any fine stoneware to prevent chipping.
While the bowl features organic, autumnal motifs like leaves and acorns, its earthy palette and classic silhouette pair beautifully with mid-century modern wooden furniture. It serves as a warm, textural accent that balances cleaner, minimalist lines.
Absolutely. Because of its generous size and decorative aesthetic, it functions perfectly as a centerpiece bowl for fruit, a catch-all for seasonal decor, or a serving vessel for hearty pasta dishes.
To preserve the finish and integrity of the earthenware, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using harsh abrasives or soaking the bowl for extended periods, as earthenware can be sensitive to moisture absorption over time.
