About the Maker

“Each pot requires the same care and attention, whether you're making one or a hundred...and I try to be conscious that this pot's going to be part of someone's life.”
"There's a fine line between a rut and a groove," potter Brian Kunkelman likes to say. This idea reflects the balance required to hand-throw each design with the mix of consistency and variation that makes every piece one-of-a-kind. Brian goes with the flow—from the water outside his studio window to the music playing near his potter's wheel, to the meditative rhythm of working with clay. Using little more than his hands and his trusty powered foot wheel, he shapes stoneware into clever bowls that blend organic elegance with everyday utility.

Buying for all my friends!
This is a great bowl, period, end of story. Spacious, great drainage, and well-crafted. As soon as I used it for the first time, I knew I'd buy more for my friends for Christmas. An added benefit is knowing I'm supporting an individual craftsman. Love it!

Love my berry bowl
It was a mother's day gift and I use it all the time for anything that needs to be washed/rinsed etc. Plus, it is beautiful and I keep it out on my counter. Heavy and works so well with many holes and a really wide attached saucer with pour spout. Just love it. Don't hesitate to buy one for a shower gift or for a new home. Great value and quality workmanship.

Knew I would love it!!
I've had my eye on this little number for a long time - literally years. I finally bought one for my cousin last December, and she raved about it. A month later, I couldn't stand that I hadn't kept it for myself and finally bought myself a gift. It's every bit as perfect as I knew it would be. It can live in the fridge with freshly washed berries, or out on the counter with grape tomatoes or cherries. It's pretty, practical, and used 100% of the time. I've never put it in a cabinet. I'm giving one to a friend tomorrow for her birthday and I can't wait to hear her rave about it - it's a must have! (And as a side note - Uncommon Goods has REALLY stepped up their delivery game - kudos and thanks UG!)

Quality Piece
I purchased this for myself about a year ago. Since then, I have purchased four more as gifts. I like the versatility of the bowl. You can use it for berries, grapes, tomatoes, and veggies. We even use it to thaw shrimp. High quality pottery that I have sitting out on the counter. Who will be my next recipient?

My go-to gift
Every one I have purchased came in a timely manner, well packaged and just lovely. They are beautiful art and function combined and I have not seen anything like it anywhere else. The artist is a true craftsman.

Is this one piece or two separate pieces?
Verified reply from Jen
Great question, it's one piece. The bottom pieces serves as a built-in drip catcher and spout for easy clean up.

Can you specify the colors you want? I like the blue and green colors in the video.
Verified reply from Tawana
No, you cannot specify colors as it only comes in that blue/green color. Due to the handmade nature of this item, each is unique and will vary.

Are there holes underneath the berries or just on the lower edges?
Verified reply from Marisa
We're not sure exactly what you mean, but there are holes for the water to drain. There are several thumbnail photos just below the main one. Click on them, and they'll enlarge. Then you can see where the holes are.
