>Because of the inclusion of Lapis Lazuli in the clay, I would not recommend using this bowl for serving food. I don't know that it is unsafe, but I don't know if it is either. Lapis Lazuli is not normally something human beings would eat, as far as I know. I am guessing here, but Lapis looks to me like it contains a good deal of copper, which possibly might leach into any food stored in the bowl.

I would call it dishwasher safe but happier to be hand washed.

I only made 3 bowls using these inclusions. Lapis Lazuli debris (left over from cutting gemstones) is not something I can get on a regular basis. This is the only one I have left. Each one was unique in shape and color. 

**You may have noticed that I am not a “production potter.” I don't make the same thing over and over again. There is nothing wrong in doing that, it is just not where my interests lie.  I am what is termed a “studio potter.” I like bowl forms in their various guises. No two of my pieces are the same, even when working on a similar theme.  It can take upwards of a week for me to make one piece. Any given piece may take several visits to the kiln before I get the color development that I want. I tend to treat each object that I make as an individual, rather than a “thing.” I only work with materials that I feel have a “spark” to them, a sort of “life force” element. 
Signed and dated.
