Inspired by the gentle curves of the shoreline, thoughtfully handcrafted to bring a little coastal calm into your home.
There is something beautiful about the simple, natural details found along the Australian coastline. The smooth curves of weathered stones, the soft movement of the sea and the earthy colours of our coastal landscape all inspire the pieces I create at Sunday Tide Coastal.
The Cove Bowl was created with this quiet beauty in mind.
With its softly rounded shape, gently flowing rim and natural stone-like appearance, the Cove Bowl is a beautiful little piece designed to add warmth, texture and individuality to your home.
Whether displayed on its own, filled with treasured little keepsakes or styled alongside other favourite pieces, it offers a simple and timeless way to bring the beauty of the coast into everyday living.
Its organic silhouette and individually created finish make it a lovely addition to a bedside table, dressing table, bathroom vanity, console or favourite shelf.
The Story Behind Our Coastal Colours
Living on the beautiful NSW South Coast, I'm constantly inspired by the natural textures and colours that surround me.
From sun-bleached coastal rocks and weathered sandstone to native vegetation and softly shadowed stone, these are the details that influence the colours I create.
Each Sunday Tide Coastal colour has been thoughtfully developed to reflect a different part of our natural surroundings.
The Cove Bowl is available in four beautiful coastal-inspired finishes.
Coastal Stone
Inspired by pale coastal sands, sun-bleached rocks and naturally weathered stone, Coastal Stone celebrates the quiet beauty of simplicity.
Its soft, warm off-white colour and natural stone-like finish create a beautifully understated look.
Without contrasting marbling, the Cove Bowl's softly flowing rim and sculptural shape become the focus.
Timeless, versatile and effortlessly elegant, Coastal Stone complements almost any interior.
Drift Ash
Inspired by the smoky, weathered tones of coastal rock formations, Drift Ash brings a beautiful sense of depth and character to the collection.
Featuring a soft, muted grey base with deeper charcoal-grey marbling, the pigments flow naturally through each bowl, creating organic patterns reminiscent of mineral veins and weathered stone.
The contrast of light and darker tones highlights the Cove Bowl's gently curved silhouette.
Each piece has its own unique movement and character, making Drift Ash a beautiful choice for those who love contemporary, earthy interiors.
Saltbush
Inspired by the soft, earthy greens of native Australian coastal vegetation, Saltbush captures the quiet beauty of the natural landscape.
Featuring a beautifully subtle, pale sage-green base with warm ivory undertones and deeper olive and moss-green marbling, Saltbush has a wonderfully organic, weathered-stone appearance.
The deeper pigments flow gently through the bowl's curved form, creating delicate patterns and natural variations.
Soft, earthy and understated, Saltbush brings a gentle sense of coastal calm to any space.
Sunworn Stone
Inspired by the rich, earthy colours of weathered sandstone and sunlit coastal landscapes, Sunworn Stone introduces beautiful warmth to the collection.
Its soft, natural brown tones reflect the colours of aged stone, warm earth and sun-weathered coastal rock.
The individually created finish adds depth and character, while the organic shape of the Cove Bowl beautifully complements its earthy colouring.
Warm, timeless and naturally elegant, Sunworn Stone is especially lovely alongside timber, linen and other natural textures.
Each colour tells its own little story of the coast, while sharing the timeless, understated beauty of Sunday Tide Coastal.
Thoughtfully Handmade on the NSW South Coast
Every Cove Bowl is individually handcrafted by me at Sunday Tide Coastal, my small handmade business on the beMy process begins with carefully measuring and mixing AR400 eco-resin, a mineral-based casting material that creates a beautiful natural stone-like finish.
I then carefully prepare the pigments that give each collection its distinctive colour.
For my marbled pieces, I mix a small amount of contrasting pigment into the casting material and gently swirl it through the base mixture.
This is one of my favourite parts of the process.
As the colours move through the mixture, they begin to form their own beautiful patterns, creating gentle variations that can never be repeated exactly.
The mixture is then carefully poured by hand into the Cove Bowl mould and allowed to set.
There is always a lovely little moment of anticipation when I demould each piece and discover how the pigments have settled.
Once removed from its mould, every bowl is individually inspected, carefully sanded and hand-finished.
After drying thoroughly, I apply protective matte sealer in thin, even coats to preserve the beautiful natural stone-like appearance.
From the first pour to the final finishing touches, every Cove Bowl passes through my hands.
No two marbled Cove Bowls will ever be exactly alike. Each carries its own beautiful patterns, gentle variations and handmade character.
It's this individuality that makes creating handmade homewares so special to me.

The Heart Behind Sunday Tide Coastal
Sunday Tide Coastal was created from my love of making beautiful, meaningful homewares inspired by the natural surroundings of the place I call home.
Living on the NSW South Coast, I'm fortunate to be surrounded by the gentle colours, organic textures and quiet beauty of our coastline.
