A single edition vessel where French maritime heritage meets hygienic modern composition. This bowl carries the coastal palette of Brittany and Normandy, its blue and white palette echoing the faïence traditions of northern French pottery, rendered onto stonemax resin that serves contemporary standards of cleanliness.
Deep cobalt blues swirl against crisp white backgrounds, creating patterns reminiscent of Rouen faïence and the decorative ceramics produced along France's Atlantic coast since the 17th century. The design features stylised floral motifs and flowing arabesques, their curves suggesting both ocean waves and the organic forms found in nature. Delicate linework in varying shades of blue creates depth and movement, whilst maintaining the clarity and crispness that defined French tin-glazed earthenware. The composition wraps the bowl's form with rhythmic repetition, balancing structure with fluidity.
This bowl descends from a tradition of French coastal pottery, where port towns developed distinctive ceramic styles influenced by trade routes and local materials. The single edition status means this precise arrangement of blue and white motifs exists solely on this vessel. Machine production allows for the seamless, non-porous finish that historic faïence, with its porous clay body beneath decorative glazes, could never achieve. The design honours centuries of French ceramic artistry whilst embracing material advancement.
Stonemax resin offers capabilities beyond traditional pottery: a completely sealed surface impervious to liquid penetration, anti-bacterial properties that prevent microbial growth, and structural integrity that resists the chips and glaze crazing common to vintage ceramics. Hand washing maintains both the material's hygienic qualities and the printed pattern's vibrancy. The smooth composition releases residue without effort, never developing the surface degradation or staining that plagued historical earthenware over years of use.
This bowl belongs in spaces that value coastal serenity and practical elegance. Use it on breakfast tables for yoghurt and granola, in kitchens as a vessel for lemons and garlic, or place it on bathroom shelves holding cotton rounds and small toiletries. Its maritime palette complements white cabinetry, natural wood surfaces, and rooms where light and simplicity guide aesthetic choices.
