Serving bowls have been a part of the home setting for thousands of years. Offering guests, family, or friends a treat or special food dish has been a long-standing tradition across many cultures that continues today.
This Bowl with Combed Lines is the perfect size to add to your breakfast routine for fruit or yogurt in the morning. Also, a great size for a smaller bowl of chili, soup or salad. The combed lines are carved into the clay by a band saw blade while the clay is "leather hard".
This bowl is a nice addition to any dinnerware set. Can also be ordered in multiples. Call for commission orders from our studio apprentice. Dishwasher- and microwave-safe. Measuring 5”dia. x 2.5”h.
