A shallow handcrafted bowl for fruits, salads, snacks and more

The ivory hue of this handcrafted stoneware bowl will instantly highlight whatever you choose to serve in it: fruits, salads, snacks or anything else you prefer. The uneven edges and the little carving in the centre only add to its charm.

This stoneware bowl is handcrafted in Karnataka. It is part of Ikai Asai’s Deva collection, whose design inspiration comes from Uttarakhand’s pristine forests, high mountains, and ethereal landscapes.

Stoneware is made from clay and fired at high temperatures in a kiln to harden. Characteristically, stoneware is less porous and more durable than earthenware.

Much like other clay products, stoneware is also made by kneading the clay and then throwing it onto a pottery wheel. The shaped clay product then goes through the process of bisque firing, glaze application, drying, and glaze firing to make the final product.

Pottery in the Indian subcontinent has a long history — it has existed as a craft form for centuries. Ikai Asai’s collection of stoneware is developed in collaboration with studio potters, who usually operate alone or sometimes with assistants. These pieces are largely processed entirely by hand, from developing the clay body and shaping the piece to formulating the final glazes.
