Jars Maguelone Soup/Cereal Bowl / 16cm / Orage

Handcrafted in France with century-old traditions and sustainable practices, this wide cereal bowl has subtly irregular edges and Jars’ iconic crackled glaze.

---DETAILS---

Though Jars Ceramistes is a family-run company that’s been around since 1857, their tableware is perfectly suited to contemporary needs. Their ceramics are very hard-wearing, able to resist cracks, fading, and the stress of dishwashers and microwaves. This is a result of an energy-saving manufacturing process that fires only once at 1285°C rather than the standard three times. Jars factories also recycle all the water and heat used in production, keeping waste and pollution to an absolute minimum. This soup/cereal bowl from the Maguelone range has a slightly irregular round shape that has a windswept look and Jars' signature crackled glaze. The non-porous glaze has a varied hue that emphasises the purity of handmade stoneware.

This piece can be pre-heated in a low oven (max 150°C) from room temperature. It should not be used for cooking. Over 200°C and in particular when using oil, the crackled-effect glaze can 'open' and may let colours of cooked foods in, therefore making it impossible to remove.

---BENEFITS---

'Restaurants love Jars plates, bowls and cups because they can go through the dishwasher multiple times a day but still maintain their lustre—and they look lovely when mixed with multiple colours from a range.'
