Slip-Coated Handmade Bowl, Pomegranate

Rooted in traditional craftsmanship, the Slip-Coated Handmade bowl celebrates the charm of imperfection and the warmth of everyday rituals. Each bowl is carefully formed and coated with white slip—a fine layer of natural clay—then hand-painted with seasonal motifs and finished with a clear glaze. The result is a soft, matte surface enriched with depth, texture, and gentle iron specks from the natural clay body.

Fired at 1300°C, each mug is non-toxic, food-safe, and uniquely individual—no two are exactly alike. The subtle variations in shape, glaze, and brushstroke are part of their handmade charm.

Whether used for dessert or fruits, these bowls bring a sense of slow living and quiet beauty to your day.

About the designer

At Cool Banana, we believe in the quiet beauty of imperfection and the soulful warmth of handmade objects. Every piece is crafted entirely by hand using raw mineral clay, fired at 1300°C without any chemical treatment. The result is pottery that breathes—organic textures, natural iron specks, and fine crackles that celebrate the passage of time.

Behind each creation is Korean ceramicist Kim Soo-hyun (金秀泫), who resides and works in Jingdezhen, China—the historic heart of porcelain. For her, making pottery is a joyful, meditative practice, and each vessel carries a sense of calm, patience, and lived-in beauty. Whether it’s the soft brush of glaze or the uneven rim formed by hand, her work honors both tradition and individuality.

Cool Banana isn’t just pottery. It’s a return to touch, texture, and time—a quiet companion for your everyday rituals.
