Mud Australia — Pebble Bowl Large in Orange

Mud Australia's Pebble Bowl Large is something of an all-rounder. The hardworking piece can act as a roasting dish and go from oven-to-table or house everything from your weekly fruit delivery to house keys and loose papers. No matter what role it ends up playing, it’s big enough to make a statement wherever it lives.

All Mud Australia is handmade in our studio in Sydney, Australia. Slight irregularities in size, glaze and texture reflect the artisan nature of the product and should be embraced.

Mud Australia is partnering with Craft to present this year's Shelley Simpson Ceramics Prize. Now in its fifth year, the prize is open to all Australian ceramicists and awards innovative, sustainable and emerging talent with a $10,000 fund to support and accelerate their practice. This year, for the first time, the selected finalists are celebrated in a four-week exhibition in Craft's Atrium gallery space.

The SSCP was established in 2020 by Shelley Simpson – Mud Australia’s Founder and Creative Director – and continues to recognise and support emerging and early-career ceramicists working across the spectrum of contemporary practice.
