Description
An elegant table centrepiece, this large ceramic bowl is made of durable earthenware with a textured linear exterior. Choose the perfect china All our china is made from clay and kiln-fired for durability. Except for pieces with special trims, everything is dishwasher-safe. Below are a few options to consider when choosing your perfect china. EarthenwareStrong and practical, earthenware is often a little thicker than other ceramics, making it ideal for everyday use. StonewareFired at high temperatures, stoneware is very tough and heat-resistant. It comes in a number of different glaze finishes. PorcelainAffordable yet luxurious, porcelain is renowned for its translucency. Fired at high temperatures, porcelain has an extremely tough glazed surface, making it durable. Fine china The synthetic bone ash used in fine china makes it a more affordable alternative to bone china. Like bone china, it's strong, translucent and delicate, and creamier in colour. New bone china A type of porcelain with added calcium oxide to achieve a similar aesthetic as bone china, but without animal bone ash. Bone china White bone china is the strongest and most translucent ceramic. Though it looks delicate, it's tough enough for daily use and is usually dishwasher-safe. It contains at least 35% bone ash.
Our Stylist Says
I love this black ceramic bowl for its sleek, modern texture and versatile size. It works particularly well in minimalist or contemporary interiors, adding a subtle sculptural element to shelves or sideboards. Practical styling tips include using it as a standalone piece to highlight its design or filling it with natural elements like dried grasses or seasonal fruits for a relaxed, curated look. Its bold colour provides a striking contrast against lighter surfaces, and the textured finish gives it an added tactile dimension, making it a functional yet stylish addition to various interior schemes.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
