Created under the creative vision of Claudia Schiffer, the Bordallo Pinheiro Cloudy Butterflies salad bowl captures the delicate rhythm of nature in motion. Inspired by the fleeting grace of butterflies floating across a cloudy sky, this design translates emotion into form. Each curve, glaze, and hue echoes the serenity of Schiffer’s countryside landscapes, turning a simple salad bowl into a poetic centerpiece for refined dining. The collection embodies the dialogue between nature and artistry, blending aesthetic sensibility with the timeless legacy of Bordallo Pinheiro.

Beauty Meets Everyday Function

While conceived as a work of art, this bowl is also crafted for modern living. It is suitable for microwave use, though it should not be placed in the oven and is dishwasher safe for easy care. Made in terracotta, it maintains the warmth and authenticity typical of Portuguese ceramic tradition. Despite its delicate look, the material ensures durability, yet, being thermal shock non resistant, it deserves a gentle touch. With its sculptural shape and smooth finish, this piece by Claudia Schiffer brings both practicality and refinement to your table setting.

The Handcrafted Essence of Bordallo Pinheiro

Each designer ceramic bowl is shaped and hand-painted by skilled artisans at the Caldas da Rainha workshops, where century-old craftsmanship meets contemporary vision. Subtle brushstrokes and glazes create depth and movement, much like butterfly wings in the morning light. No two pieces are ever identical, each bears the signature imperfection that defines true art. The design’s fluid silhouette echoes natural forms, a hallmark of Bordallo Pinheiro’s ability to transform everyday objects into tactile expressions of beauty and storytelling.

An Elevated Approach to the Art of Dining

This decorative salad bowl adds a graceful dimension to any tablescape, whether used for elegant entertaining or displayed as a statement object. It harmonizes perfectly with other elements from the Cloudy Butterflies collection, plates, trays, or boxes, creating continuity across your tableware ensemble. Combining visual delicacy with functional charm, this luxury salad serving dish becomes the focal point of a curated dining experience. The bowl’s soft tones and refined detailing invite conversation and contemplation, making it a timeless choice for those who value artistic tableware bowls that tell a story of craftsmanship and natural inspiration.
