Description
The Mere Bowl is a sculptural centrepiece, one that looks beautiful in a table-scape or space whether it is in use or not. Its characteristic shape is simple yet ingenious, as a line down its middle folds out to the sides forming a bowl. Elevated by a discrete foot, it looks as if floating. Manufactured in tactile ceramic stoneware, it has been coated in a high-gloss glaze that enhances the shadows that form along Mere Bowl’s fold. This surface treatment makes the bowl food safe.
“Mere Bowl was inspired by a small porcelain piece that Salla made on the pottery wheel in the studio – the contrast between its conical round shape and the strict line of its bottom inspired the to continue experimenting with it. Initially prototyping with paper, we created bowl-like surfaces through folding, later moving from bendable materials to the rigidity of plaster. We wanted it to be as much a humble and utilitarian item as an elegant stand-alone sculptural form, casting beautiful shadows when empty.” – says Studio Kaksikko
Made in ceramic stoneware with a high gloss glaze inside and out. The production process makes each bowl unique with small deviations in colour, thickness and surface.
