About this Product
Split Rim Bowls. There are 2 in this set. The stated price is for the set. Each one is made of stoneware and glazed with food safe glazes. Interesting split rim decoration. They are all close in size, but not exact. Each one is approximately 5" in diameter by 3" tall. Each one holds approximately one and a half cups of liquid. Thank you.

Meet the Maker
Many years ago, I first started with clay. It has been a long, on and off again journey. Sometimes the off part of the journey lasted a long time. At some point over all those years, I made it a personal goal to stock my home with plates, mugs, bowls, vases, salt cellars, pitchers, doorstops, etc. that I have made. It is a delight to use my creations day in and day out. I am hopeful that there are people out there who would also welcome a handmade item or two to use and enjoy throughout daily life.
My pieces are all handmade, small batch creations intended to be functional as well as beautiful. I’m constantly learning. Constantly improving my skills. Constantly trying out new techniques. Just continuing to work with the clay. Please enjoy these pieces in your everyday life. To that end, all of the glazes are made to be safe for use with food and you can put them in the dishwasher, microwave and oven.
If you see something you like, but would like a different color, size or set, please reach out and let me know. I’d be glad to work with you.

How it’s Made
When throwing the bowl shape, I leave a thick bit of clay up at the rim. I then use the back end of a needle tool to press into that thick bit of clay and form the channel. I then pinch the two sides of the channel together to form the split rim. Please take a look at the video for a look at that process in action.
Once these pieces set up a bit, I trim the foot and clean up the shape of the exterior of the bowl. Then into the kiln for the bisque firing. After that, time to glaze. These have 3 coats of one food safe glaze on the inside. 3 coats of the colored food safe glaze on the rim. And then the exterior is a combination of the white glaze and the colored glaze (six layers total) to get the look you see. Once dry - back into the kiln for the glaze firing. Now they are ready for your table. Thanks for looking.

As for the care of your piece, the glazes are all food safe. These can be used in the dishwasher, the microwave, and the oven. As with all ceramics, please avoid sharp changes in temperature. Avoid taking something from a cold refrigerator and putting it directly into a hot oven. Pottery typically doesn’t handle that type of sharp change in temperature well…..
