Corsica Pedestal Bowl with Iron Handles

Corsica Pedestal Bowl with Iron Handles

Some pieces look like they've always been there. This is one of them.

The Corsica Pedestal Bowl has the unhurried beauty of something found at a French country market rather than purchased new. Its wide, shallow basin sits on a sturdy footed base, finished in a distressed whitewash that shows the marks of time in all the right places. Dark forged iron drop-ring handles flank each side, grounding the piece with just enough weight to keep it from reading as purely decorative. It is, in fact, highly functional: at 16.5 inches across, it holds a generous arrangement of fresh or dried florals, a pillar candle surrounded by pebbles or botanicals, a mound of seasonal fruit, or a floating arrangement of blooms and tea lights. It works as well on a dining table as it does on a console, a garden patio, or an entry hall. The distressed finish means it layers naturally into both collected, eclectic rooms and quieter, more minimal ones without demanding attention it hasn't earned.

Styling Tips:
Fill with a single large pillar candle and scattered taper candles for a dramatic dining table centerpiece, then surround with seasonal foliage for a fully composed look. For an everyday arrangement, pile with loose fruit or botanicals.
