Portofino Ceramica Bento Cereal Bowl – Enjoyment that Starts in the Morning
Do you love cereal, oatmeal, and cornflakes, but haven't yet discovered the ideal vessel for your breakfast? Are you unsure which cereal bowls to buy and which one is right for you? Our simple Bento cereal bowls are perfect for a balanced breakfast and, with their natural appearance, allow your eyes to "eat" as well.
One Bowl – Many Functions
Are you already out the door after a cup of hot coffee in the morning and not really enthusiastic about cereal? No problem, because our Bento bowl is not just suitable for breakfast. Thanks to its deep shape, you can also enjoy delicious salads and soups in it. A tasty miso soup, which, by the way, is also eaten in the morning in Japan, fits ideally with the simple aesthetic. So that a Bento bowl is ready for all your meals, we offer the Bento Set of 6 Cereal Bowls. This way, you can enjoy your cereal in the morning, a salad at lunchtime, and a hearty soup in the evening, for example.
Beauty Lies in Imperfection
What makes our Bento series special is its extraordinary look. The stoneware used is shaped by hand. After firing at $\text{1200}^\circ\text{C}$, two reactive glazes are applied by hand, which, after a second firing, create a unique color gradient on every single bowl. The hand-shaping process also results in slight irregularities in the form. This imperfection is also reflected in the aesthetic concept of Wabi-Sabi, where beauty is found in the transient and natural.
Fair Quality with Sustainability
It is particularly important to us that sustainable materials are used in production while high quality is achieved. Our stoneware therefore comes from Europe, and our glazes are subject to EEC directives. The Bento cereal bowls are manufactured in Portugal under regular quality controls, in a partnership based on equal footing with our partners there.
A Timeless Look for Your Home
Instead of filling your home with meaningless items, with our Bento bowls, you bring a conscious lifestyle into your interior design. Every piece from our production is something special and carries a piece of history and wanderlust with it. This is why the price of our products is higher than that of cheap mass-produced goods. Because only this way can we guarantee both the quality and the sustainability of our Bento bowls.
