Know before you buy
Yes, the bowl is made with food-safe glass and enamel. Because the design is fused into the glass at high temperatures, it is safe to use for serving snacks or fruit.
We recommend hand washing the bowl with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals, as these can dull the finish of the glass over time.
The Dancing Bears design is screen printed and then fused between layers of glass. This creates a smooth, durable surface that protects the artwork from scratching or fading.
Because each piece is individually screen printed and kiln-fired, there may be slight variations in the placement of the bears or the color saturation. These subtle differences are a natural result of the artisanal process and make each bowl unique.
This bowl is not recommended for microwave or dishwasher use. The high heat and intense water pressure of a dishwasher can compromise the glass enamel, while microwaves may cause stress to the fused glass structure.
