Each pot is shaped, left to dry to leather-hard, trimmed, and finished by hand. Once fully dry, it's fired to over 1000°C and cooled for about 24 hours, then glazed — sometimes with up to 8 brushed-on coats to build those painterly effects — before a final firing to 1180°C and another 24-hour cool-down. Start to finish, the whole process takes 3 to 6 weeks, a little longer in colder, damper months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA note on handmade variation\u003cbr\u003eBecause each piece is made by hand, you may notice small differences in glaze and size from bowl to bowl — that's not a flaw, it's the joy of owning something one-of-a-kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaring for your bowl\u003cbr\u003eThis little bowl is dishwasher and microwave safe for everyday ease, but hand washing will keep the glaze looking its best over the long run — totally your call!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKind to the planet too\u003cbr\u003eEvery order is packaged using recyclable and biodegradable materials — no unnecessary plastic, just careful, planet-friendly packing so your bowl arrives safe and sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eQuestions? Just message me any time — I'm always happy to help.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thistledown Pottery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58868910883151,"sku":"TD-001-FLK-169","price":17.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/2506\/9647\/files\/il_fullxfull.8368020426_hno5.jpg?v=1790184089","url":"https:\/\/www.thistledownpottery.co.uk\/products\/handmade-ceramic-folk-design-trinket-dish-blue-and-cream-glaze-stoneware-pottery","provider":"Thistledown Pottery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
