PLANTOIR Cereal Bowl Ø15cm Red

The earthenware bowl described here is more than just a simple food container. It is a functional piece of art, meticulously hand-decorated, with a white interior contrasting with a vibrant red exterior. This color combination is not only aesthetic but also functional, as earthenware is known for its durability and impact resistance.

The design of this bowl is inspired by the reliefs of the iconic public artwork known as “Plantoir”, created by artists Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen. The giant trowel, reinterpreted here in the form of a bowl, captures the playful and monumental essence of the original sculpture, transforming it into an everyday object that celebrates the concept of applied art.

Made in Portugal, this bowl not only honors the country’s artisanal tradition but also offers essential modern features. It is a versatile product, suitable for use in various conditions: it can be used in the oven to prepare hot dishes, in the refrigerator or freezer for safe storage, in the microwave for quick heating, and even in the dishwasher for practical and efficient cleaning.

Portuguese earthenware, long appreciated for its smooth finish and strength, is the ideal material for a bowl that is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing. Every hand-painted detail reveals the care and skill of local artisans, who preserve traditional techniques while adapting to contemporary demands for functionality and food safety.

Thus, this bowl is not just a household utensil, but a piece that incorporates history, art, and practical utility. By purchasing this product, you are not only investing in a guaranteed quality piece but also supporting a tradition of craftsmanship that has endured through the centuries, elevating the everyday to the realm of art and functionality to the level of beauty.
