The bowl of our kitchen dreams.

This smooth white porcelain bowl is like the perfect lovechild of a plate and a bowl -- it's only 1 1/4 inches high and extra-wide. That means we can happily fill it with pie and ice cream, and just as easily use it for a sandwich. The shape is unusual and fills a void in our serveware -- we've got bowls, plates, and platters, but nothing quite like this.

Heads up: Due to the way this piece is crafted, the bottom is left unglazed (a nice lil' reminder of the fact that it's handmade, we think!).
