Nesting Bowls

A nest of four hand-thrown stoneware bowls, gently tapered, with coloured nori speckled glaze on the inside, matt finish on the outside. Made in Kent.  Approximate measurements starting with the largest bowl: diameter 105mm, height 50mm; diameter 80mm, height 40mm; diameter 65mm, height 25mm; diameter 40mm, height 15mm.

Each item is as unique and singular as its maker’s hand, with no two pieces being the same. Please expect each piece to carry variations bearing out the process by which it was made, with variations to the size, hue and texture.  Please contact us if you would like exact measurements and a photograph, as each set of nesting bowls we sell will vary slightly.

Lucy Rutter’s work has a pared back functionality that beautifully expresses the important relationship between form and everyday use. The observation of pots in the studio, and their use in the domestic space, inform many small revisions of the work. This allows it to evolve, in terms of shape, weight and surface. Her final designs are elegant and minimal; influenced by Scandinavian design, and perhaps by formal poetry.
