Dish Without Base
Made by Studio Pieter Stockmans
Designed by Pieter Stockmans
The Dish Without Base distills Pieter Stockmans's sensibility into a single object. Thin porcelain, formed by hand in small series, carries a glazed interior against a raw exterior that grades from white into blue or white into grey. That unfinished surface is a deliberate choice: the hand meets the material directly, without mediation.
Stockmans established his Belgian studio in 1987 with a precise focus on the tabletop, treating chinaware with the same attention a sculptor gives to form. Each piece reflects that discipline, its quietness earned rather than assumed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Studio Pieter Stockmans based?
Studio Pieter Stockmans is based in Belgium. Pieter Stockmans founded the studio in 1987 with a dedicated focus on handcrafted porcelain tableware and objects, produced in small series.
Is the Dish Without Base food safe?
The glazed interior of the dish makes it suitable for holding fruit or serving food. Because the exterior is left raw and unglazed, hand washing is recommended to preserve the surface texture and gradient finish.
What does the raw porcelain exterior feel like?
The unglazed exterior has a fine, matte texture that reveals the natural character of the porcelain body. The gradient, which moves from white toward blue or grey, is achieved through the firing and glazing process rather than applied decoration.
How do Stockmans pieces vary between small series?
Because each piece is handcrafted in limited runs, subtle variations in the gradient and surface texture are inherent to the process. These differences are considered part of the object's identity rather than flaws.
What is the scale and proportion of the dish?
The Dish Without Base is designed as a tabletop object, proportioned to read as a centerpiece or fruit bowl. Its thin walls give it a lightness that belies the density of porcelain as a material.
