More about this collection

From mini trinket dishes to wide statement centrepieces, every recycled glass bowl here is hand-blown and relaxed over its own piece of reclaimed Balinese wood, so the glass pools into the grain and sets in a shape that can never be repeated. Sizes run from small ring dishes to large fruit bowls, on natural, whitewashed or carved-stand bases.

Use them for fruit, keys, jewellery or pot pourri, or let them stand alone as sculpture. For ideas, see how to style molten glass bowls, and keep yours beautiful with the care guide.

Good to know

Questions, answered

What sizes do the bowls come in?

From mini trinket and ring dishes through small and medium decorative bowls up to large fruit-bowl sizes, including pieces raised on their own wooden stands. Each listing shows approximate dimensions.

Can I use them for fruit or food?

Yes, for dry foods such as fruit, nuts and sweets. Wipe the glass clean rather than soaking the piece, and keep it out of the dishwasher to protect the reclaimed wood.

Why does my bowl look slightly different from the photos?

Every bowl is hand-blown and settles over its own piece of wood, so colour, shape and grain vary a little. That variation is the point: yours is one of a kind.

What should I put in a decorative bowl?

Almost anything with a single theme: fruit, keys, jewellery, pebbles or pot pourri. Our guide to what to put in a decorative bowl has room-by-room ideas.
