Traditional Portuguese pottery has maintained the same distinct aesthetic throughout centuries of production thanks to small family-owned factories that are passed down through generations. A Vida Portuguesa is a small Lisbon-based, women-owned shop of stores focused on a variety of Portugal-made goods. The shop sources these bowls that are handcrafted by artisans from the Leiria region, well known for specializing in clay. Buy a handful to set the table for guests or get a single special piece for your favorite comfort meal. (Each sold separately.) As the bowls are handmade, some imperfections may occur, adding to the uniqueness of each one. The A Vida Portuguesa Dipped Rim Ceramic Bowl is food-, dishwasher- and microwave-safe.
