It won't matter if you're sitting at the table, counter or snuggled on the sofa with a bowl of pasta goodness using your new handmade pasta bowl is going to make dinner extra special. Everything looks gourmet in these bowls, even if your pasta is as simple as buttered noodles with a smattering of parmesan and dried parsley. We're not going to judge you for what you eat in them as long as you're using them.

When my friends Bob and Katie messaged me asking if I would make them a set of pasta bowls I was all over it. I'd been looking for a reason to add these to the assortment and having an order for them was the perfect impetus. We have Bob & Katie to thank for inspiring these new bowls!

These pottery bowls are not limited to pasta. The shape is a favorite of chefs for all sorts of dishes because of the way that the bowl envelopes the food, framing it and making it look extra special. We love to use these bowls for thick stews, pasta, cereal, a rustic roast with root vegetables, salads, fruit, or as a serving bowl for a side dish at a family style dinner.

Just in case you're REALLY into plants, these bowls also make a gorgeous succulent planter centerpiece with a landscape of different succulents.

Microwave & dishwasher safe.

The Raven Serving Bowl is hand built using our signature dark brown clay and white glaze. It will be the perfect size for a small tossed salad, serving a side dish family style, or snuggling up on the sofa with a big pile of pasta on your own.

Ravens have been a recurring theme my whole life. When we were married in 2014 my husband and I got themed tattoos (we definitely did not put each other's names on our bodies - that's instant doom on a relationship, right?). I found an old Irish proverb that goes something like, I will be the wings that give your dreams flight if you will be the anchor that keeps me grounded. Something like that. We both have raven tatoos now, and because he is my anchor, I have an anchor on my forearm as well. Now, that's a LOT of information to tell you about this sexy raven illustration on a bowl, but now you have a little bit of the back story and I hope it gives your dreams flight as well.

Microwave & dishwasher safe.

Measures approximately 9" diameter and 2.5" high. This bowl is hand built from a slab of clay so don't expect it to be perfectly round. That's what makes it so interesting on the table!

A vintage medical illustration of the heart adorns this handmade appetizer plate revealing itself as you eat through your tasty food. It makes the perfect addition to your fall table or year round if you're a cardiologist or just love a good vintage illustration like I do.

I've always loved the shivers and scares from Edgar Allen Poe's The Tell Tale Heart and any movie with Vincent Price in it. As a kid I would ride the bus to my grandparents after school and read, curled up under a lilac bush, or flop on my stomach in front of the tv watching old Vincent Price movies on the Detroit channel we could just get on the north side of Toledo. It never failed to thrill and delight me.

Grilled cheese and a handful of chips, a giant slice of chocolate cake, a small healthy salad, a crusty piece of bread to go along with dinner or a few appetizers at your next party. Whatever you decide to use them for, we're sure you'll be reaching for the Everyday Sandwich + Dessert Plate as often as we do.

Measures approximately 6-7" diameter. Each plate is completely handmade and individually unique. 

Made of stoneware for durability. Perfect for entertaining, every day use or even restaurant ware.

Microwave and dishwasher safe, though, I do recommend hand washing since things bang around quite a bit in the dishwasher. If you choose to use the dishwasher anyway, your cup will last much longer if you're careful to place it where it won't vibrate or bang against other dishes.

Each piece of pottery is carefully wrapped and packed to ensure safe delivery.

The Gavrinis inspired hand carved smudge bowl is going to add a special meaning to your smudge rituals. The bowl measures approximately 4” diameter and is handmade using a dark stoneware clay from Kentucky Mudworks, a woman owned and operated clay manufaturer that we just happen to love.

Use your new smudge bowl with palo santo, sage, sweetgrass, resin, incense or any of your favorite smudge ingredients. Each bowl comes with a small amount of pure silica sand for the bottom so the bowl does not get too hot to hold and to extinguish your burning whatever. 

Every bowl is unique. While you may not receive the exact bowl in the photo, you will receive one from this series. We will intuitively choose the bowl for you. 

My favorite sage is from Flowering Moon. If you purchase the set of 3 sage bundles from her she will include the directions for her smudging ritual which is my absolute favorite. It is simple to follow and deeply powerful when performed correctly. It’s more than just burning sage and waving it about. She’ll walk you through every step of the process and you will be able to claim your space while clearing the energy with success every time.

Now for the exciting stuff! This is how the bowl came into being...

When my good friend, Dev Swingholm of Flowering Moon came home from her last trip to France she was alight with stories about visiting Gavrinis.

If you google Gavrinis you’ll find a load of misinformation about it being a tomb with “abstract carvings” dating back to approximately 3500 bc. It turns out, it isn’t a tomb at all but a ritual space and those abstract carvings are actually murals of waves, suns, chevrons, trees, lozenges, coils, spirals and concentric arcs. Those arcs, not abstract at all, are described as “vulvas” and combined with the waves, the carvings “seem to say that the generative force of the Goddess is inexhaustible, rising and flowing like waves,” according to UCLA archaeology professor Marija Gimbutas. Googling “Gavrinis goddess” will get you much more interesting and accurate information.

Reclaiming power as women, the permission to set our own physical boundaries and appreciating the amazing things women do within our civilization has been a motivating force for me this past decade. Not to say I’ve ever been much of a shrinking flower, but knowing that women were once revered as the leaders of their culture and they kept the spiritual wellbeing of their tribes as sacred is heartening. Being surrounded by strong, intelligent women who bring change to their lives and the lives of those around them is inspiring. Finding male friends who support the strengths and power of the women in their lives has given me hope for a future where women do not have to struggle to be valid.

In developing new designs for pottery I have always worked to design objects that function well as intended and to decorate them in a way that means something to me.

Sometimes those carvings say, “f%#* salad, I want cake,” because...hello...cake! Sometimes they are deeply personal carvings inspired by the travels of the women in my circle, meant to empower more women to embrace their inner strength and become the badass they were always meant to be.
