This handmade bowl by ceramic artist Beatričė Kelerienė features a dramatic, heavily textured surface that resembles volcanic stone or cooled lava. The bowl’s form is simple and intentional: a rounded body on a stable foot, allowing the extraordinary surface to take center stage.
The porous, cratered texture was created through a combination of clay body composition, firing conditions, and the artist’s technique. Subtle variations of charcoal grey, warm earth tones, and mineral-like flecks give the bowl a raw, elemental character. The tactile surface invites touch — each crater, pit, and speckle is a natural part of its formation, making the bowl feel both ancient and contemporary.
Perfect as a decorative centerpiece, a sculptural object, or a statement bowl, this piece stands out for its unique geological appearance and strong artistic presence.
