Elegant, organic, and timeless — the Open Petals Bowl features softly curved, layered petals radiating outward like a blooming lotus. Its balanced proportions and natural symmetry make it ideal as a centerpiece, jewelry tray, or candle holder.

Measuring Instructions

Default size: ~180–240 mm diameter.

To resize:

Measure the intended use (e.g., jewelry, fruit, tealight, pot base).

Scale proportionally in slicer.

For stability, avoid reducing below 100 mm diameter if printed in lightweight filament.

Printing Tips

Works with FDM or resin printers

Recommended layer height: 0.12–0.2 mm

Supports required — print flat on the base

Infill: 10–20 % (denser infill for heavier uses)

Use slow outer walls (35–45 mm/s) for smooth curvature on the petals

PLA, silk, or matte filaments bring out elegant petal detail

Finishing & Painting

For a natural look: use silk gold, pearl white, jade, or translucent resin

For a modern style: matte black, silver, or dual-color gradient

Apply clear coat for shine or satin varnish for a soft ceramic-like finish
