Know before you buy
Yes, the bowl is crafted from terra-cotta and is suitable for serving dry or solid foods like fruits, bread, or salads. However, because of the porous nature of terra-cotta, it is best to avoid using it for liquids or highly acidic dressings.
To preserve the distressed white finish, we recommend hand-washing the bowl with mild soap and water. Avoid soaking it or using abrasive scrubbers, which could damage the rustic texture.
The handles are integrated into the terra-cotta design, making them durable for carrying. While they are convenient for transport, we recommend supporting the base of the bowl when it is filled with heavy items to ensure stability.
The distressed finish is intentionally applied to give the bowl a vintage, rustic aesthetic. While it is durable, normal handling may result in minor wear that only adds to the bowl's authentic, lived-in character.
This bowl is not recommended for microwave or dishwasher use. Hand-washing is required to maintain the integrity of the terra-cotta material and the longevity of the decorative finish.
