Caja Company produces this canapé bowl in Italy, where each piece is individually hand-painted in faience. The fish-shaped bowl measures 20 x 13 cm and comes in a lime shade. Because each bowl is hand-painted, brushstrokes and color intensity vary from piece to piece — no two are alike. The faience is fired at high temperature, giving the surface a subtle gloss.
Care and Maintenance
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the hand-painted finish for as long as possible. Avoid the dishwasher, as high heat and strong detergents can wear down the glaze over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between faience and stoneware for serving bowls?
Faience is fired at a lower temperature than stoneware, resulting in a lighter clay tone and often a more porous texture. Faience typically has a glossy glaze, while stoneware can be unglazed. Faience is lighter but also more delicate than stoneware.
Is hand-painted faience dishwasher safe?
Hand washing is recommended. Dishwashers can wear down the hand-painted surface and glaze over time, especially with high temperatures and harsh detergents. Faience is more fragile than industrially decorated ceramics.
How much can a 20 cm faience bowl hold for snacks?
A bowl measuring 20 x 13 cm typically holds 150-200 ml, enough for a generous portion of olives, nuts, or small tapas dishes. Depth varies, but most canapé bowls are shallow and wide, designed for serving rather than storage.
Is a hand-painted faience bowl a good hostess gift?
Yes, especially if the host enjoys colorful kitchen details or collects handmade ceramics. A lime fish bowl is casual and practical, and because it’s hand-painted, it feels personal. Pair it nicely with a small jar of olive oil or gourmet nuts.
Who is behind Caja Company and where are the bowls made?
Caja Company is an Italian brand specializing in hand-painted faience. Production takes place in Italy, where local artisans paint each bowl individually. The brand is known for its colorful, maritime motifs and traditional craftsmanship techniques.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
