The cottage is quiet now. The fire has burned low, something is steeping nearby, and on the windowsill sits a cauldron holding a pinch of salt gathered between two fingers. The Cauldron Bowl belongs to the smaller workings of The Slow Dark—the herbs set aside to dry, the offering left before bed, the incense burned while the windows are still open to the cold. Its form feels as though it came from somewhere older, then crossed into the modern world.
Made by hand in dark clay, each ceramic cauldron carries the flowing lines and fingertip marks of the person who shaped it. A spiral waits at the bottom, visible between whatever you have gathered there. Use it for herbs, salt, stones, incense, offerings, jewelry, or as a distinctive catchall or decorative bowl. Or let it find another purpose entirely.
Beautiful as both a functional vessel and an object in its own right, the Cauldron Bowl is microwave and dishwasher safe. Each size nests neatly inside the next, making the collection especially striking displayed together.
Gravesco Pottery creates thoughtfully designed, functional ceramics by hand in their Indianapolis studio. Rooted in craftsmanship and the belief that beautiful objects should be used every day, each piece begins as a block of clay and is individually shaped and finished by hand. Subtle variations in form and glaze are part of the character of the work, making every piece beautifully one of a kind.
