Inspired by the sinuous form of a blooming tulip, this refined white bowl elevates home decor to art. Marked by a highly-textured surface, the bowl features expressive horizontal and vertical ridges and a single striking gold panel insert, creating a dynamic color and textural contrast. The distinctive feel of the paper clay is achieved by blending paper pulp and natural fibers to the clay mixture. Used as a centerpiece on a long dining room table or a low-lying side table, this piece will shine in any decor. Every one of Paola Paronetto’s creations is unique. Slight variations in shape, colour and size are to be considered a guarantee of authenticity and value. They are finished with non-toxic satin-finish enamels. Although very rarely, it is possible for them to leak after long periods of exposure to water. It is therefore advisable to test their water resistance before using them on delicate surfaces. They should not be used as dining utensils. The white pieces can be washed with water or sanitizing products, whereas the coloured pieces must be treated more gently and cleaned with a feather duster or a soft cloth, dry or moistened very slightly with water.
