- This step-by-step video shows you how to make a fruit bowl from a slab of clay using another bowl as a former. With beautiful cut out patterns you can create a bowl of your own design following this technique.
This is a great make for beginners to help get a feel for handling clay and understanding when is a good time to work the clay in different ways.

Great idea, very effective. It would be nice to see the glazing process and the finished product.

Thank you! I am learning valuable information from watching your videos. ❤
I'm so glad! 😊 Thank you
Very nice fruit plate. Thanks from Ester, Australia
Thanks 😊
Hand made is not perfect. Free hand is meant to be imperfect. It makes the piece one of a kind. I think your carving is lovely 😍
Thank you very much! :)
This is a great way to make a pierced bowl! How thick was your clay when you started! Need to try this asap!
Generally I work with slabs around 5mm thick as I find this is a good compromise between strength and ease of making and the final piece not looking too chunky 😊 Have fun! It would be great to hear how you get on.
