The Bordallo Pinheiro Christmas Garland bowl is a fine example of Portuguese ceramic artistry. Hand-shaped in terracotta and finished by expert artisans, every holly leaf and berry relief is modeled with remarkable detail. A glossy glaze enriches both depth and color, protecting the surface while enhancing its festive appeal. The result is a Christmas ceramic bowl that combines decorative flair with everyday usability, making it both a collector’s item and a practical accessory for the holiday table.

Styling & festive synergy

Compact yet versatile, this bowl adapts to a wide range of uses: from serving nuts and candies to presenting sauces, dips, or small side dishes. When combined with charger plates, trays, and cake stands, it contributes to a cohesive holiday tablescape that radiates warmth and tradition. Its sculpted motifs frame even the simplest contents with a festive touch, turning casual servings into seasonal highlights.

Design heritage & artistry

Created by Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro, the piece reflects his ability to transform everyday objects into artistic statements. Within the category of bowls and salad bowls, this design distinguishes itself for its vivid details and symbolic imagery. The holly, with its evergreen leaves and red berries, has long been associated with renewal and celebration, making the bowl not only a serving item but also a cultural emblem.

Practical features

Designed for real use, the bowl is suitable for microwave and dishwasher safe. It should not be placed in the oven and must be kept away from sudden temperature changes, as it is non resistant to thermal shock. Safe for alimentary use, it remains a reliable festive bowl that blends functionality with decorative character, ready to return to the table year after year.

The Bordallo Pinheiro Christmas Garland bowl from the Christmas Garland family is more than a vessel: it is a symbol of holiday joy. By combining heritage, artistry, and practicality, it enriches every gathering with charm, turning even the simplest serving into a memorable detail of the celebration.
