Rosella Bowl

Material

Crafted from high-quality porcelain clay, fired with semi-matte glaze, and finished with high-quality ceramic transfers.

Craftsmanship Process

The Rosella Bowl undergoes a meticulous three-stage firing process to achieve its exquisite finish. We begin by pressing the moulded clay body, followed by an initial firing with a semi-matte, lightly speckled eggshell glaze. As the largest piece in the collection, it is spray-glazed inside and out, with the exterior receiving two coats. The intricate pattern and illustrations are then screen-printed and meticulously hand-transferred by artisans. This process involves two additional firings- first for the pattern, then for the illustrations and the Poppy & Pepper brand logo.

Design

Our largest bowl resembles a traditional Chinese teacup, the Harmony Cup, with an inward-tilting edge and elevated foot. Stunning Rosellas surrounded by magnificent pink gum flowers and framed in ‘windows’. Flower branches flare into the bowl for an unconventional finish. The remaining exterior is covered in a hairline chainmail pattern in turquoise.

Versatility

Perfect for serving a shared main dish, casserole, salad, pasta, and more, our Rosella Bowl is designed to enhance any dining occasion.

Options

Two smaller sized bowls are available: Honey Eater Bowl & Robin Bowl

Note: We photographed our cherished ceramic pieces under studio lighting, but the warmth of the glaze may look slightly different in various lighting conditions. The flow of the glaze can cause speckles to cluster unevenly, leading to variations in their distribution across different pieces. Differences in glaze flow due to hand-dipping and spraying, along with slight variations in the placement of patterns and illustrations, underscore the unique, handcrafted nature of Poppy & Pepper ceramics and are part of their charm.
