Serve up midweek spaghetti in style with the Cara Shell Pasta Bowls in red, handpainted exclusively for Casa by JJ. The shell motif traces the edge of the bowl, while a floral, leaf-like design takes centre stage. A size that will stand up to a decent portion of cacio e pepe or carbonara.

Inspiration
Caldas da Rainha is nestled within the Silver Coast of Portugal, where wines, pears and pottery are borne from the fruitful earth. Its relationship with pottery is an inseparable part of its culture; earthenware has been shaped there since the 18th century, with royal legacy shaping its, at times, humorous and unexpected designs.

The leaf motif reflects a culture of fine cuisine, abundant nature and detailed craftsmanship. The shell gracing the edge harks to the country’s affinity with the seaside.
Collectors Questions

Q: Is the pasta bowl only suited to pasta?


A: It's shaped with a deeper rim to hold pasta, sauce, and other wet dishes well, but there's nothing stopping it from working as a generous everyday bowl for soup, grain bowls, or salad — the shape is more versatile than the name suggests.

Q: Are pasta bowls dishwasher safe?


A: Yes, on a low-temperature or eco cycle (ideally ≤50–55°C) with a mild, non-aggressive detergent, with heated drying switched off. Given how often a pasta bowl tends to be used, hand-washing is the better long-term habit for keeping the glaze looking new.

Q: Does the pasta bowl work well for serving at the table, not just individual portions?


A: It can double as a small serving bowl for a side dish or a starter, particularly when a few are placed together at the centre of the table rather than one per setting.

Q: Would a set of pasta bowls make a good standalone gift?


A: Yes — it's a genuinely practical gift for anyone who cooks regularly, distinctive enough to notice but useful enough to reach for often, which is the best combination in a gift.
