A blue floral Moroccan ceramic bowl with a cream outer wall, rounded flared sides and a small raised foot. The inside is the part that catches the eye: loose blue floral brushwork sits in the centre, framed by a black dotted band and a rim picked out with short blue strokes.
Handmade in Safi, Morocco, it has the relaxed character of hand-painted pottery rather than a factory-perfect repeat. The small black flower on the outside gives the plain exterior a neat decorative finish, so the bowl works well both on the table and left out on display.
Hand-painted Safi design
The pattern is balanced between bold and simple. Blue is used for the central flower and striped rim, while black dots create contrast around the inner wall. Slight variations in the brushwork are part of the appeal of an artisan-made piece.
Ways to use it
Use it for salads, snacks, fruit or side dishes, or place it on a shelf, dresser or dining table as a decorative Moroccan pottery accent. The open bowl shape keeps the painted interior visible even when it is not in use.

Can it go in the dishwasher? Hand washing is recommended to help preserve the hand-painted decoration and glaze.
Is it microwave safe? No. It should not be used in the microwave.
