In this design I was thinking about a couple’s gift. This nesting set has a smaller all bronze heart that sits in the larger round bowl that is glazed glossy black on the inside and bronze on the outside. The dark shiny interior of the larger bowl frames the little bronze heart for a stunning display. I have made these bowls for those celebrating their 8th, 9th or 19th wedding anniversary -the bronze pottery years. The small heart works well for wedding rings and the larger bowl holds watches, keys and cuff links – a his and her gift. Beautiful, unique and completely practical – a versatile gift for anyone.

Each set contains:

• One large round bowl with a smooth black interior and bronze exterior

• One small heart ring dish, perfect for tiny treasures like rings or cufflinks

Together, they nest beautifully — the smaller hearts cradled inside the larger base — evoking the sentiment of layered love, security, and intentional design.

Due to the handmade nature of each piece, exact dimensions may vary slightly. Each bowl is hand cast and hand  glazed in our Colorado studio, then finished with our proprietary metallic bronze glaze and fired to 2300°F for durability.

Material & Finish

• Stoneware clay, custom blended in-house from our own recipe

• Fired to cone 6 for maximum strength and chip-resistance

• Exterior: Our own signature bronze glaze with a slight shimmer

• Interior: Rich, glossy black glaze (on larger bowl only)

The contrast between matte metallic and glossy black adds dimension and sophistication, making these pieces feel both rustic and modern. Each bowl reflects light subtly, emphasizing its organic contours and hand-formed quality.

Functionality & Symbolism

While undeniably beautiful, this set is made to be used. Some of our favorite uses include:

• As a nightstand or dresser set for rings, watches, and keepsakes

• In the kitchen for serving dips, nuts, or sauces

• As a decorative display for stones, herbs, or dried flowers

• Or simply as an art object, admired for its form and finish

The heart shapes evoke love and intimacy, making this a meaningful gift for anniversaries, engagements, weddings, or birthdays. The nesting structure adds symbolic value — pieces that fit inside one another, mirroring partnership and interdependence.
