This medium Simple salad bowl from Astier de Villatte is a testament to the Parisian brand's spiritual ethos and fascination with folk art and abandoned objects. Votary of pre-industrial fabrication, Astier de Villatte is celebrated for being the one and only studio in Paris to hold and harbour the traditions of artisanal ceramic production. Restoring the ancestral systems of moulding and stamping, the medium Simple bowl is made using handcrafting techniques from the Middle Ages which involve moulding a handmade sheet of clay, double firing the 'biscuit' piece and glazing the product in white enamel ' a lengthy process that requires a drying time of up to one month. The organic piece is engraved with the brand's signature crest - depicting an interlacing A & V - alongside the initials of one of the 40 master artisans who created the glazed salad bowl. Each handmade piece tells a beautiful story, it romances and imparts a sense of nostalgia into its owner. Arrange with other serveware in the collection to breathe an air of authenticity into your table setting. Artisanal production gives each ceramic object a unique aspect, meaning products may slightly vary.'We ask people to produce with a good spirit so the pieces look almost alive.'Benoit Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli, Astier founders
