The Serax Dune Raised Bowl brown designed by Kelly Wearstler brings monumental presence to the category of Bowls and Salad bowls. Carved entirely from rich brown marble, its 30.5 cm diameter balances scale and refinement, offering a vessel that is equally suited for serving dishes or standing as a decorative centrepiece. The natural veining of the stone makes each piece unique, while its elevated silhouette creates depth and hierarchy in contemporary dining arrangements.
Design Identity
Kelly Wearstler translates her architectural language into Serax tableware that feels bold yet timeless. The raised bowl captures this ethos, combining weight and elegance in a form that is both sculptural and useful. Its warm hue ensures the object resonates as a serax dune tall bowl brown, bringing a grounding note to lighter table compositions. The profile recalls the archetype of a deep ceramic bowl for serving, yet realised in marble for greater permanence and resonance.
Material and Craft
Marble is chosen for its durability and luxury. Subtle variations in grain ensure that no two bowls are identical, reinforcing artisanal individuality. As noted in the care instructions, it should be hand washed with delicate soaps to preserve its surface and sheen. The dense stone makes it stable on the table, protecting contents while asserting its sculptural presence. Its depth provides clarity on when to use tall bowls for dining: ideal for abundant salads, layered fruit displays, or shared servings in hospitality environments.
Styling and Use
The bowl’s generous height allows it to anchor table settings, contrasting with lower trays and plates. Its brown marble surface harmonises with wood, porcelain, or linen, creating tactile compositions that feel grounded and refined. It adapts effortlessly to seasonal menus—hearty stews in winter, vibrant salads in summer—while always maintaining its visual gravitas. For collectors and design professionals planning to order dune brown bowl, this object serves as both a functional server and a decorative element that stands sculpturally when empty, while matching both Serax cutlery and Serax glasses.
Collection and Brand Context
As part of the Dune series, the raised bowl complements other marble trays and porcelain pieces, reinforcing the collection’s commitment to exploring material diversity. It highlights the collaboration between Serax and Kelly Wearstler, which merges utility and artistry at every scale. The piece resonates with the language of Kelly Wearstler serving design, positioning tableware not only as tools but as enduring works of design.
