Our Double Vine Terra Cotta Bread Warmer combines functional design with artisan beauty, making it a must-have for any home. This unique piece features a whitewashed terra cotta stone, deeply incised with a nature-inspired design, which rests within a handwoven kaisa grass basket adorned with a palm wrap. Not only is this fair trade warmer oven safe, but it also serves as a popular gift item, ideal for any occasion. To use, simply rinse the terracotta stone before the first use and dry well. Preheat your oven to 350°F, place the stone inside, and bake for 10 minutes. Although heating time may vary, careful handling is essential, as the stone will be hot. Do not put the basket in the oven; instead, carefully place the warm stone back into the basket. For best results, wrap your bread or other baked goods in a towel and place them on the warmer to enjoy the soothing warmth and rustic charm at your table. Easy to maintain, the bread warmer basket can be cleaned by rinsing with water, and it is not dishwasher safe. This bread basket with a warming stone is a thoughtful blend of functionality, beauty, and tradition, making it a cherished addition to any kitchen or dining room.
