I created this abstract handbuilt ruffled ceramic bowl by slowly shaping the stoneware clay with my hands and letting the curves unfold in an organic, sculptural way. Each wave rose gently as I worked, then the piece was bisque fired, glazed entirely by hand, and high fired for lasting strength. The glaze moves from soft sky blue into deeper ocean tones, catching the light in flowing patterns.
This bowl reaches about 11 inches across at its widest point and stands roughly 6 inches tall, giving it a bold presence while still feeling airy and full of movement. The ruffled edges shift between smooth and softly textured, inviting you to explore the form with your fingertips.
It works beautifully as a centerpiece, a sculptural display on a shelf, or a unique serving piece for special gatherings. Home décor lovers, collectors, stagers, and anyone seeking a meaningful handcrafted gift often gravitate toward pieces like this because every curve is truly one of a kind. Crafted in Charlotte NC, this abstract handbuilt ruffled ceramic bowl blends art and function in a way that feels serene and expressive.
