Step into a world of whimsical charm with the Manufaktura Polish Pottery Bowl, a masterpiece that brings the lively "Chicken Dance" pattern to your table. This 11.75" round, shallow salad bowl is more than just a dish; it's a celebration of artistry and tradition. Picture this: large, playful chickens in rich brown hues, with quirky green heads and striking teal blue tails, all prancing around a lush green meadow painted on a crisp white background. These chickens aren't just facing any direction; they're meticulously placed counterclockwise, adding a touch of the unexpected to every meal. Interspersed with delicate light blue flowers and vibrant green tufts, this design is not only unique but tells a story of skilled craftsmanship.

Indeed, the "Chicken Dance" pattern is a shining example of Unikat pottery - a term derived from the Polish word for 'unique'. Each Unikat piece is a labor of love, crafted with a level of detail that only the most experienced artists of Manufaktura can provide. These artists are encouraged to push the boundaries of traditional pottery, incorporating an intricate palette and complex elements that elevate each bowl to a work of art. Not just visually appealing, this bowl is stamped with the "UNIKAT" mark, guaranteeing its authenticity and uniqueness, a true collector's item. Whether you're serving a simple salad, a hearty pasta, or a side dish, this bowl turns every meal into a vibrant feast for the eyes.

But the beauty of this Polish Pottery doesn’t just lie in its appearance. Hand-painted in Boleslawiec, Poland, by artisans who have honed their craft, this bowl is as functional as it is decorative. It's designed to withstand the rigors of daily use while being safe for the dishwasher, microwave, freezer, and oven (up to 425 degrees). The high-quality material is not only tough and chip-resistant but also free from lead, nickel, and cadmium, making it a safe choice for your family. Since 1992, Manufaktura has set the standard in the pottery industry, celebrated for their innovative designs and commitment to quality. Embrace the joy of dining with a bowl that's built to last, and let each meal be an expression of creativity and joy.

Cleaning 

Polish Pottery is Dishwasher safe! Or, clean by hand using regular dish soap and scrub brush. 

Guidelines to keep your pottery in excellent condition:

You may safely use Polish pottery in the microwave and in a conventional oven at temperatures up to 425°F. We recommend you heat your stoneware up to temperature with the oven. Make sure to always cover the entire bottom of the dish when baking. For example, you don't want to put a single chicken breast in the center of a baker and leave the rest of the surface area uncovered, as the empty spots will heat at a different rate than those with food on them. Polish pottery does not like quick changes in temperature or uneven heat sources, and thermal shock WILL result in a broken dish.

Never place your pottery directly on a hot stovetop burner! 

While Polish pottery is extremely durable, it should not be taken directly from the freezer and placed into a hot oven. In addition, cold water or frozen food should not be placed in a hot piece of pottery. Always allow cooling or warming to room temperatures before heating in an oven or placing in a freezer. If taken care of properly, your Polish pottery can last for generations!
