Tibetan Black Pottery Pebble Bowl – 4.7 in Oat / Yogurt
Pickup currently not available
Tibetan Handmade Black Pottery — Wood‑Fired Pebble Oat & Yogurt Bowl
Product Story
On a sun‑bleached courtyard overlooking the Yarlung Tsangpo, Tibetan artisans mould river‑clay into smooth pebble‑shaped cups. Each wall is compacted by thousands of rhythmic taps, sealing strength into the clay before the pine‑wood kiln turns it midnight black. The result: a bowl that feels like a river stone warmed by morning light—ideal for creamy yogurt or slow oats.
