Shared Table Set

 

• 1 Hout Plate — larger rising-wall plate for shared serving, approximately 31 cm
• 2 Storka Bowls — lower, open bowls for shared serving, approximately 27 cm each

 

• 3 pieces in total

 

 

The Hout Plate provides the set’s broadest central surface. Its larger diameter and rising walls position it for food reached from different places around the table.

 

The two Storka Bowls are smaller, lower and more open. Their contents remain visible and accessible, and the pair can hold separate dishes or distribute food across different parts of the table.

 

The three pieces perform related but distinct serving roles rather than repeating one form at three sizes.

 

 

The Shared Table Set is composed entirely of shared forms. It is intended to accompany individual plates and bowls that are already available.

 

The Hout Plate can establish one broad central serving point, while the two Storka Bowls introduce additional open forms around it. The precise arrangement can change according to the food, available space and position of the diners.

 

This set does not contain individual place settings, and it should not be understood as a complete conventional dinner service.

 

 

The Shared Table Set is not assigned to a fixed diner count. Its suitability depends on the dishes being served, the wider table arrangement and the individual tableware accompanying it.

 

The three pieces also do not need to be used simultaneously. They can remain together as a serving group or be distributed across different meals and table situations.

 

 

The two Storka Bowls share one recognisable product identity without becoming exact copies of each other.

 

Because Chmissa builds and marks every object by hand, differences may appear in outline, wall height, openness, surface texture, tonal distribution, line placement and decorative execution. Related differences may also appear between the bowls and Hout Plate.

 

Handmade variation does not include cracks, sharp breaks, instability, delivery damage or an object materially different from its description.

Chmissa makes all three pieces at her home in Sejnane.

 

She prepares and shapes the clay directly by hand without using a potter’s wheel. She also works through the marking, drying and outdoor firing stages that give each piece its final structure and surface.

 

Birds, fish, lines, triangles and geometric borders recur across her pottery. Their placement and execution can change as she works, allowing the pieces to remain coordinated without being mechanically standardised.

 

Meet Chmissa or follow the Sejnane pottery-making process.

 

 

Wash each piece by hand and dry it thoroughly.

 

Avoid prolonged soaking and sudden changes in temperature. Do not place the ceramics in a dishwasher, microwave, oven, freezer, on a stovetop or over direct flame.

 

Store the three pieces securely and avoid unstable stacking. When nesting them, place suitable protection between their surfaces and prevent excessive pressure on the lower pieces.

 

Stop using a piece if it becomes cracked, sharply damaged or unstable. Read the complete Ceramic Care Guide before regular use.

 

 

Choose the Hosting Table Set to combine shared forms with four individual plate-and-bowl pairings.

 

You can also compare all four ceramic dinnerware sets or build your own ceramic set according to the tableware you already own.
