Dawn · Flared Bowl

€28,00

From the morning porridge tradition to a daily bowl of care.

A 650 ml open bowl for warm oats, rice porridge and fruit. Its curved body gathers cooked grains and a little liquid; the open rim leaves room to arrange pear and nuts, ready to enjoy with a spoon.

OrienX draws on the Chinese morning porridge tradition: soft grains cooked in water were intended to nourish the body's fluids and bring comfort to the stomach. We give that care a contemporary plant-based form with oats, unsweetened soya drink and cooked pear. Aube gives this first meal a familiar bowl to return to each morning.

Texture to look at closely

The textured interior and slightly irregular outline give the bowl its character. Changing light reveals subtle variations before and after a meal.

Food traditions and this piece

Morning porridge: nourishing fluids, comforting the stomach

The Laolao Hengyan describes morning porridge in the context of care in later life. Sheng jin means nourishing the fluids that, in traditional thought, moisten the mouth and body; the intention is to ease dryness and thirst. Kuai wei means bringing ease to the stomach, with attention to how comfortably it receives a meal. Ordinary grain, cooked in water until soft and moist, carries that daily care. These are the nourishment intentions of the historical text.

From a Chinese porridge tradition to a plant-based breakfast

Cook oats with unsweetened soya drink, soften pear separately in a little water, then add a few walnuts. Grains form the breakfast base, soya contributes plant protein, and fruit and nuts bring different textures: a contemporary OrienX combination. Aube's curved wall suits a spoon; the opening leaves room for toppings and the grey beige sets off their colours. Pair it with Verger to keep the pear separate and add it as you eat. Choosing this piece gives an intention of care a preparation, a place and a set of gestures to repeat every morning.

Le bord !

C’est le bord un peu irrégulier que je préfère. Je n’avais pas envie d’un bol tout droit, tout lisse. Avec mes assiettes blanches, ça fait un joli mélange.

Bien pour le petit-déjeuner

Pour mes céréales, très bien. Pour une grosse soupe le soir, j’en prends un autre, plus profond.
