The manufacturer states it is \u003cstrong\u003eoven and microwave safe\u003c\/strong\u003e, and recommends \u003cstrong\u003ehand washing with mild soap and warm water\u003c\/strong\u003e followed by complete drying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and Manufacturing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe black color is not an enamel but the result of the firing process: the clay is smoked at the end of the firing, and carbon penetrates the surface instead of covering it. This is why the color is never uniform, ranging from matte charcoal to metallic gray depending on where the smoke has circulated, and leaving lighter spots in places. The rim is thin and slightly irregular, while the base remains quite thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStyle and Decoration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA twenty-centimeter black cylinder is the closest thing to a neutral shape in tableware: it has no curves, no foot, no flared rim, so nothing that dates it. It highlights colorful items, such as a citrus salad, tomatoes, or berries, exactly like a black background in photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEveryday Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts straight sides hold a tall salad without it sagging over the edges, which a flared salad bowl does not allow. The flat base makes it stable even when placed on a thick tablecloth, and allows it to go directly from the oven to the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn terracotta blackened by smoking, any abrasive product attacks the surface carbon and leaves an irreversibly lighter area: this is the only real risk for this piece. Hand wash as indicated by the manufacturer, with mild soap and warm water, dry completely, and allow the salad bowl to return to room temperature before rinsing it under water after coming out of the oven, as hot terracotta abruptly cooled can crack along its entire height.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bazar Bizar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54469065507143,"sku":"JAES001B-L","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/8000\/8263\/files\/grand-saladier-cylindrique-terre-cuite-noircie-20-cm.jpg?v=1785415944","url":"https:\/\/www.fenalor.com\/en\/products\/grand-saladier-cylindrique-terre-cuite-noircie-20-cm","provider":"Fenalor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
