Know before you buy
Yes, this bowl is both microwave and dishwasher safe. While it is durable enough for daily dishwasher use, we recommend hand washing to preserve the glaze and pattern over time.
Absolutely. The flat, wide design makes it particularly well-suited for fried rice, noodle dishes, or even as a small serving dish for sides and accompaniments.
Despite its delicate and elegant appearance, the bowl is engineered for excellent stability. Its base is designed to sit securely on the table without wobbling.
No, this specific bowl is not designed to be stacked. Due to its unique flat shape, it is best stored individually on a shelf or in a cabinet.
