These woodfired stoneware bowls are the most frequently used pots in my house--between morning cereal, soup or salad at dinner, and then ice cream for dessert--they probably cycle through the dishwasher 5-6 times a week. And yes, they are both micowave and dishwasher safe, and the pefect size (3x5.5) and shape (gentle triangle) to fit in the hand. The white glaze nicely contrasts with the orange and brown flashing from the fire on the clay surface. The fingerprints from glazing are a permanent decoration on the sides). The pictures are of representative bowls.
