Product Insights

The Purple-Hued Speckles Small Bowl by Simons Maison is a $10 CAD reactive-glaze bowl that is one-of-a-kind due to its unique pattern. It is microwave- and dishwasher-safe, but hand washing preserves its shine, and avoiding sudden temperature changes prevents crazing. Subtle surface variations are normal. The bowl is dense and non-porous, complying with Health Canada's heavy-metal limits. It stays cool while heating food evenly. Suitable for various uses from mise en place to cereal, it out-sizes comparably priced reactive-glaze bowls. Matching plates are available.
