Sprigs of Kindness Bowl

A seasonal garden in bloom, fresh-picked wildflowers, a jar of herbs on your windowsill—all lovely, but impermanent. Ceramicist Neena Jhaveri captures the beauty of living flora and preserves it forever in her handmade bowls. She imprints earthy clay with fresh sprigs of real rosemary, thyme, and baby’s breath, then fires the vessel twice in her kiln and hand-paints the impressions left behind by the greenery. The motto, “Sprigs of kindness make a good recipe for life,” circles the interior rim. Each one-of-a-kind piece is a touch of never-ending spring and an especially eloquent gift for that wonderful person or couple who bring warmth to your life. Handmade in Virginia.
