As this sourdough bowl is handmade, no two are exactly the same. This means that the dimensions, weight, colour and texture can vary slightly from one item to another
Usage & care
This large sourdough bowl is dishwasher safe, although please be advised that washing by hand is recommended to help prolong its life
When you use the bowl for handling the dough, I recommend placing a towel underneath it to protect the working surface
Best to use a soft scraper when handling the dough to avoid any scratches on the surface. Avoid metal objects
If you transfer the dough from the bowl of a stand mixer, wet the bowl beforehand
I use a kitchen towel to cover the dough during the bulk fermentation. If you live in a dry environment, you might want to use a slightly damp towel

The large sourdough bowl is absolutely beautiful, and performs beautifully. The shape, weight, and texture of the bowl are perfect for handling dough. I have also been using it as a salad bowl!

for mixing breads. I will use it for other things such as a veg bowl or for a salad.
The customer service, from the time I ordered to the follow up on delivery was amazing. To me ,That is an important part of any on line purchase. The bowl was well packed and in great shape when it arrived.
I would recommend treating yourself and purchasing this work of art.

I am from small town Columbus , Mississippi and I just received the bowl. I have admired it for over a year while watching sour dough explained instagrams . When it became available to ship to US I ordered immediately. I could not be more pleased and will treasure it along with mixing in it for years.. do not hesitate to purchase this! It will be a family heirloom ❤️

I live in Puerto Rico and I recently received my bowl. It is a beautiful piece of pottery and it is perfect for the coil folds. It is wide and sturdy which makes it rather easy to handle the dough. When not in use in my bread baking adventures, it sits as the centerpiece of my dining room table.

The hand-crafted piece of pottery is a practical and elegant addition to any home baker’s collection. Its design is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The broad, low-profile shape makes it perfect for folding the dough. This shallow bowl combines form and function beautifully, enhancing the sourdough baking experience. I love mine.

I adore this bowl and get great compliments on it when I post a video of me making bread in it. It is solid, of great quality, clearly made with love, and packaged with care. I love how well it fits my aesthetic.

I am so happy about the bowls. I’m baking since 2 years and didnt find the perfect bowl.
This bowl fits perfectly in size and weight!
Thank you so much:)

I’d had my eye on this bowl for a while, and after using it during an in-person class with Andra, I ordered it whilst I was there. It’s shallow and wide, which makes folds so much easier, and it’s properly heavy – meaning it stays put instead of lifting with the dough every time you fold or give it a lift. If you make sourdough regularly, I honestly can’t recommend it enough.
