Lotus Oval Bowl (S) / Braun

The oval shape fits perfectly in my hand and the brown glass has a warmth that makes it feel special even for a simple bowl. It's surprisingly sturdy for something handcrafted, and the subtle irregularity from the blown-glass process adds character.

The blown-glass technique gives it a lovely uneven rim that catches the light in a way factory-made bowls just don't. It's lightweight enough for daily salad duty but still feels substantial, and the brown has a warm, earthy depth that works on my wooden table.

I was surprised by how lightweight this bowl feels while still looking sturdy—perfect for serving small sides or nuts. The blown-glass finish gives it a nice handmade touch that stands out on the table. Only wish it came in a slightly larger size for more versatility.
