WORKS A TREAT
MiaCara’s porcelain jar and dog bowl are a design feast.
s READ MOREMiaCara’s porcelain jar and dog bowl are a design feast.
s READ MOREYou’d be forgiven for mistaking the contents inside MiaCara’s new treat jar for human snacks. Designed to “seamlessly fit into many different homes,” the glossy porcelain container works all too well; the jar—and a matching dog bowl—look like they belong on the kitchen counter, anything in them to be eaten with hands, not paws.
Created by MiaCara in collaboration with Danish design studio Hans Thyge & Co., the Coppa range adheres to the time-honoured philosophy of ‘form follows function’. Both objects are fitted with a removable silicone base but for different reasons: the non-slip material keeps the bowl from sliding around on the floor while dogs dig in, and stops the jar from scratching surfaces when humans reach to treat their pup. The all-silicone lid keeps the dog treats crunchy and fresh (as they should be). A dreamy Scandinavian color palette adds aesthetic appeal.
MiaCara, who delights in problem solving, tells us they’re ever-innovating “to make the bowls even more versatile” and a Coppa double-feeder is coming soon.
