Olives Bowl, Folded Edge Style, Blueberry (Seconds)

Seconds: This bowl emerged from the glaze firing with a shallow crack in the bottom. The inner bowl is not affected. The bowl is fully usable for table usage, but due to the crack, not recommended for heating in the microwave or oven.

Whether you like your olives in a warm marinade or with a fresh chill, you can use the smaller bowl for tidy disposal of the pits. Or consider this dish for any small quantity of appetizer with condiment. The design also works great as a snack-bowl-for-one with cherries, watermelon, veggies and dip, or nachos and salsa. Girl dinner, anyone?

Choose from two styles. For the "Insert" style, the small bowl is tucked into the cut-out edge of the main bowl. For the "Folded edge" style, the small bowl is attached onto the folded edge of the main bowl; this newer style echoes the design of the chip and dip bowls.

This combo starts with a bowl thrown on the wheel, and the smaller bowl thrown off the hump (a big lump of clay from which small items are made in succession). The main bowl and the smaller one are sealed together with slip, a liquid clay.
