Hand Painted Paper Mache Checkerboard Display Flat Bowl

A bold checkerboard pattern fills the interior of this rounded papier-mâché bowl, giving the piece a lively graphic quality from every angle. The monochrome centre is balanced by linear borders around the rim and exterior, where hand-drawn strokes add rhythm without making the design feel overly precise.

The open, medium-depth form offers enough space for lightweight decorative contents while remaining low enough for the painted interior to stay visible. It can be used to gather wrapped treats, dried botanicals, fabric accessories, jewellery or other small household objects, or displayed empty as a sculptural tabletop accent.

Built and painted by hand, the bowl retains a gently irregular outline, tactile surface and visible variation within the checks and border lines. These details are characteristic of papier-mâché craft and give the object a warmer, more individual presence than a mechanically produced piece.

Its black-and-white palette makes it especially versatile, sitting comfortably within contemporary, eclectic and craft-led interiors. Place it on a console, coffee table, sideboard or wide shelf where the checkerboard design can be seen from above.
