Combining an innovative sense of the contemporary with traditional materials and manufacturing processes, Pereira Office has put a fresh and exciting twist on terracotta tableware. With a low profile, scooped design, the Barro Bowls are tactile and inviting, featuring the rolled-edge detail that defines the collection. Crafted using age-old techniques in Pereira’s native Portugal, this set of two bowls showcases an understanding of the material while updating the form for modern needs.
