Fleure Mini Hand-Painted Ceramic Bowls by A loja da Ceramica — Set of 2

The Fleure mini bowls are small wheel-thrown ceramic pieces, hand-painted in Portugal with the collection’s blue floral motif. At 3.5 inches across, they are scaled for olives, nuts, condiments, small sweets, or the little ingredients that benefit from their own vessel on the table.

Each bowl is shaped and painted by hand, so the brushwork and form retain the slight variations of the process.

“I am always grateful for very small bowls because they solve dozens of little table problems without making the setting feel busy. I use them for olives before dinner, salt at the table, or a handful of berries at breakfast.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership

I hand wash these small pieces and keep them from knocking against heavier ceramics in the sink, which helps protect the hand-painted surface and rim.

Maker / Heritage

A loja da Ceramica works from Portugal’s Alentejo ceramic tradition. The Fleure collection is individually thrown and hand-painted by potter António, with a blue floral motif co-designed with artist Gabrielle de Saint Venant and informed by Portuguese folk decoration.
