Why this bowl earns its place
The 260mm Wabi Sabi bowl is the statement piece—large enough to command attention, beautiful enough to deserve it. At 1.08 litres and 260mm across, this is crockery for generous service: shared salads, family-style vegetables, platters of noodles, or the kind of composed dishes where the bowl itself is part of the visual story. Hand-glazed in deep indigo and double-fired to full durability, each of the six bowls in the pack carries subtle glaze variation that adds authenticity to the set.
The design is rooted in restraint. At 10mm deep and rimmed, the bowl catches light while maintaining balance and proportion. This isn't ornamental crockery—it's functional tableware that happens to be beautiful. Rene Ozorio's Thai heritage shows in the appreciation for negative space and the confidence in letting a single colour carry the entire aesthetic. On a table, the 260mm bowl says: this kitchen understands scale and intention.
These are bowls for tables where food is shared, where courses build and overlap, where the crockery becomes part of the dining experience. The 6-pack size suits restaurants offering generous sharing plates, family-style service, or buffet-style menus. For kitchens building a complete Wabi Sabi suite across multiple sizes, the 260mm sits at the larger end and pairs beautifully with the smaller 165mm amuse bowls and mid-range 200mm soup courses.
