Humble Earth Large Bowl Green/Brown

This large hand-thrown ceramic bowl is a striking example of functional pottery with a refined, earthy aesthetic. Carefully shaped on the potter’s wheel from stoneware clay, the bowl features a wide, generous form with gently curving walls—perfect for serving, displaying, or as a centerpiece.

The interior is glazed in a rich green, evoking tones of forest moss, sage, or verdigris. The glaze pools slightly in the center, deepening the color and adding a smooth, glossy finish that beautifully contrasts with the matte textures elsewhere. Subtle variations in the glaze may create a sense of depth and movement, enhancing the organic character of the bowl.

The exterior is finished in a warm brown glaze, with tones reminiscent of tree bark, toasted wheat, or raw cocoa. This glaze is applied in a way that allows some texture and form to come through, with occasional flecks or streaks that add visual interest. The brown and green glazes complement one another, creating a grounded, nature-inspired palette.

The base of the bowl is left unglazed, revealing the natural stoneware clay in its raw state. Around this base, a notched pattern is carefully incised with a series of small, evenly spaced vertical cuts adding a subtle decorative detail and a tactile element that invites touch. This unglazed foot not only offers a visual anchor but also reflects traditional craftsmanship, honoring the materials and process.

Altogether, this bowl is both rustic and refined—ideal for use in a kitchen or on a table where beauty meets purpose.
