A tiny, footed red clay pig bowl and spoon. Made by Gloria Mateo, one of the first potters Modela worked with in Oaxaca. Gloria lives in San Marcos Tlapazola, a village of female potters who make utilitarian pieces out of their local red clay called barro rojo.

Gloria burnishes the local red clay bowl with a stone, a small corn cob, even part of a credit card. Then the bowl is fired.

A red clay spoon comes with the bowl.

The bowl is food safe. Use it for salt or spices.

Size: 2” high x 2” in diameter 

Care: hand wash and dry immediately.
