I shaped this handbuilt pottery leaf bowl in green by slowly forming high quality stoneware clay with my hands, letting the edges ripple and fold in a way that feels natural and quietly expressive. The process is intuitive and tactile, and each curve emerges from the rhythm of working directly with the clay. Once the form was complete, I bisque fired it, glazed every surface by hand, and high fired it for strength and durability.
 
The glaze blends soft greens with touches of earthy brown and deep blue, creating a marbled surface that shifts with the light. The center is smooth and glossy, while the outer edges have a softly textured finish that invites you to explore the form. At about 8 inches wide and 4 inches tall, it has a sculptural presence without overwhelming a space.
 
This handbuilt pottery leaf bowl in green fits beautifully into a home as a decorative accent on a shelf, a sculptural touch on a console, or a unique serving piece for special moments. It brings a serene, nature inspired energy to any room. Crafted in Charlotte NC, it is often chosen by home décor lovers, collectors, stagers, and anyone looking for a meaningful handcrafted gift.
