A handcrafted stoneware reliquary dish featuring hand-painted nested rainbow arcs. Wide and shallow, this artisan ceramic catchall dish is perfect for holding jewelry, crystals, incense, keys, or other small keepsakes that deserve a special place to rest.
The Nested pattern was created for the SFMOMA Museum Store's 2025 Ruth Asawa retrospective, inspired by the woven, layered forms of Asawa's iconic hanging wire sculptures. Both functional and sculptural, this handcrafted ceramic dish transforms everyday organization into a meaningful ritual while serving as a striking piece of artisan home décor.
