Bordallo Pinheiro Cabbage Bowl

While these earthenware pieces are durable, we recommend hand washing to preserve the intricate glaze and texture over time. They are generally microwave safe for short durations, but avoid extreme temperature changes to prevent cracking.

The small bowls are best suited for individual dipping sauces or small snacks, while the medium size works well for side dishes or cereal. The large bowl is substantial enough to serve as a centerpiece salad bowl or for family-style vegetable sides.

The cabbage leaf texture is detailed, but the smooth glaze makes it relatively easy to wipe clean. Because of the ridges, we recommend using a soft brush if food residue gets caught in the crevices.

This collection features distinct dimensions, so you can mix and match sizes depending on your needs. Please check the specific dimensions for each piece to ensure you are selecting the right scale for your table setting.

Earthenware is a classic, sturdy material, but it is more porous and softer than porcelain or stoneware. Treat these bowls with the same care you would any artisanal pottery to avoid chipping the edges.
