Know before you buy
While the bowl is crafted from earthen materials, it is primarily designed as a decorative vase or display piece. We recommend using it for dry arrangements or as a standalone sculptural object rather than for food service.
The bowl features a tactile contrast between the matte blue base and the glossy amber and black glaze. You will notice a distinct difference in smoothness between the two finishes.
Because each piece is hand-thrown and glazed individually, the specific distribution of the tortoise shell pattern will vary slightly from piece to piece. This ensures that your bowl is a unique, one-of-a-kind item.
To maintain the finish, we recommend gently wiping the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or putting the bowl in the dishwasher, as these can damage the delicate glaze.
Yes, the bowl has a substantial, hand-thrown earthen construction that provides a sturdy base. It is well-suited for holding medium-to-tall floral arrangements without tipping.
