ALMA 16oz Red Maple Leaf Soup Bowl with Loop Handle — Hand-Painted Stoneware, Oven & Microwave Safe

ALMA's 16oz Red Maple Leaf soup bowl is a hand-painted ceramic bowl with a large loop handle, safe for microwave, oven, dishwasher and freezer use up to 480°F.

Hand-decorated by artisans of the ALMA-Sazaki Group, this 16oz ceramic bowl blends everyday practicality with crafted charm. The red maple-leaf motif is applied with both sponge and brush techniques for a textured, one-of-a-kind finish that brings a cozy, rustic accent to breakfasts, soups and hot drinks. Robust stoneware clay and a durable lead- and cadmium-free glaze make it suitable for frequent use while retaining its color and surface integrity.

How hot can I safely heat this bowl?

The bowl is rated for high-temperature use and can handle oven and microwave heating up to 480°F. Its stoneware construction distributes heat evenly to support baking or reheating while the large loop handle gives a safer grip when lifting hot contents.
