Lava Stone Bowl Black XS

The Lava Stone XS by Bazar Bizar is a small, handmade bowl made from volcanic lava stone. Rounded walls form a thick rim around its shallow recess, with the porous stone left visibly textured. The black finish has the variation of a natural material rather than the uniform appearance of glazed ceramic.

A salt bowl, not a serving dish

Measuring 7 × 7 cm and standing 4 cm high, this is a compact vessel for a small quantity of seasoning. Its capacity is 20 ml. Consider the capacity alongside the external measurements: the substantial walls occupy part of the overall shape, so the outer silhouette should not be mistaken for the available space inside.

The manufacturer specifies dry food only and identifies salt and spices as suitable uses. This makes the bowl an option for setting out those ingredients in the kitchen or at the dining table, rather than for sauces, dips or wet accompaniments. The producer also suggests using it for small trinkets if you prefer a non-food purpose.

Natural texture and a rounded profile

Handmade production and natural stone mean that individual pieces can vary slightly in colour and surface detail. The handle-free outline and rough texture suit rustic table settings or restrained, minimalist arrangements. Photographs show the material's character, but the exact pattern of pores and tonal markings will not necessarily repeat on the bowl you receive.

Hand washing and thorough drying

Clean with warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth or sponge, then dry thoroughly straight away. Avoid abrasive cleaners and rough tools that could damage the surface. The manufacturer recommends a dry indoor location and limiting prolonged exposure to moisture. This bowl is not dishwasher safe and must not be used in a microwave or oven.
