Favorite soup bowl shapes
I'm about to start making a bunch of soup bowls so that I have them for next
years feed the hungry event. I like my soup bowls with a coffee mug handle and plain low cylinder shape for stability. But since these aren't for me I'm curious what others like. Any comments? Donna |

Donna I sometimes make my soup bowls with a flat rim so you can carry the bowl easily without getting your hands hot from the hot soup. Sandi |

Sandi That is a nice idea - keeps them stackable yet serves the purpose of the handle. Donna |

Thank you. I like those shapes. They are very similar to my tea cups which
I love the feel of for holding. Donna "Rob Morley" wrote in message t... In article , DKat says...

But since these aren't for me I'm curious what others like. Any comments? I like a well designed rice bowl for just about anything you'd eat or drink from a bowl. Here are a few: Nice lines but the base is a bit deep: http://www.giftcollector.com/Product...0/31601.lg.jpg Base a bit wide, curve of the sides not quite right: http://s7v1.scene7.com/is/image/JohnLewis/230413112?$gallery$ Base maybe a little narrow, and too sharply defined, otherwise good: http://www.essentiallywhite.co.uk/im...00x500pixels/A rctic_Round_Rice_Bowl.jpg Pretty, but the sides are a little too vertical at the rim: http://www.chinacraft.co.uk/images/P...all/966316.jpg This one's pretty good (but I hate the transfers): http://www.giftcollector.com/Product...0/44200.lg.jpg I find that when it's just right a rice bowl is comfortable and secure to hold in one hand or two, and to use with a spoon or as a cup. Well, you did ask. :-) |

Make what you love, there will be customers who connect. I have a
spectacular deep, nearly rimless tenmokku/kaki bowl that I picked up at an Empty Bowls event. My daughter spent a lot of time before choosing an awful, light-purple commercial bisque thing. She still loves it, it's hers and it was a special occasion. Just do it :-) Best regards, Ralph in NH "DKat" wrote in message ...
