Product Description
The Rene Ozorio Wabi Sabi flat rimmed bowl is a hand-glazed, double-fired porcelain piece from Thai designer Rene Ozorio, produced by Steelite. Each bowl carries a naturally irregular glaze finish in the Wheat colourway — an intentional characteristic of the Wabi Sabi aesthetic, which draws on the Japanese concept of finding beauty in imperfection. No two pieces are identical, which is by design rather than a quality concern.
In a busy service environment, the appeal of this range lies in its ability to elevate plating without requiring elaborate presentation. The flat rimmed profile gives chefs a clear, workable surface for composed dishes — starters, small plates, sharing portions, and desserts all sit comfortably within the bowl's format. The double-firing process contributes to a durable body that holds up well under the stacking, handling, and repeated warewashing cycles typical of commercial use.
- Hand-glazed finish creates natural variation that adds character to table settings
- Flat rimmed profile suits composed plating and contemporary small-plate menus
- Double-fired porcelain construction supports durability in daily commercial use
- Wheat colourway works well alongside both neutral and earthy tableware palettes
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for consistent table covers
As with all artisan-glazed crockery, minor glaze variation between pieces should be expected. This is not a fault — it is inherent to the production method. Operators running large cover counts will want to factor this into ordering quantities to maintain a coherent look across the pass.
This bowl suits restaurants, bistros, and hospitality venues where tableware presentation is part of the dining experience. It is particularly well matched to contemporary or casual-fine menus where texture and handcrafted character are valued at the table.
If you are building out a full table setting or have questions about pairing pieces within the Wabi Sabi range, we are happy to help you make the right selection.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The variation in glaze tone and texture is a deliberate feature of the Wabi Sabi range, reflecting the design philosophy behind it. In practice, the pieces are complementary rather than mismatched, and most operators find the natural irregularity adds to the appeal rather than detracting from it. If consistency of finish is a priority for your setting, it is worth viewing the range in person or requesting a sample before committing to a full order.
- The double-fired porcelain construction is designed to hold up under the demands of commercial use, including regular machine warewashing. As with any hand-glazed crockery, following manufacturer guidance on chemical concentrations and cycle temperatures will help preserve the glaze finish over time.
- That depends on your cover count, service style, and how the bowls are used across the menu — a small plates or sharing menu will cycle through crockery more quickly than a single-course starter format. As a general guide, most operators aim to hold two to three times their seated cover count to allow for washing cycles and breakage buffer.
