Chico Bowl
HANDMADE IN MEXICO
Beautiful and functional––use these perfectly-sized bowls for soup, rice, salads, or sides. Pair them with our Tonaltepec Tableware.
Story
Mix and match with our other clay tableware to create a truly eclectic table setting.
These functional pottery pieces are made in Tonaltepec, a community in the Mixteca of Oaxaca, whose inhabitants have kept their ancient ceramic tradition alive for centuries.
These pottery pieces are among the few in the world that use organic plant pigments to decorate. The dark brown colour of the stain is achieved when a craftswoman applies ink made from prickly pear and oak bark after taking them out of the 900° C oven.
