Artful Bowls, Dishes, and Pretty Plates

[ChrissyM]

I love the button dishes. They are really something. However, i don't know if i believe their "sturdy" claim. they look so delicate

I'll update you all on the sturdiness when the tray i ordered gets in..
i'll try to take some photos as well so we can all get a better look at it

Nymphenburg sketches bowls

Designed by Hella Jongerius, but based on German sketches from the 1920s...

I don't like them, but they're an interesting idea... arrange your food around them I guess...

Themes and Variations wall plates

Piero Fornasetti (1951)

Piero Fornasetti's graphic art often re-worked a single idea over and over again, allowing his imagination run free to develop new concepts.

The most famous of these ideas - the Themes and Variations, illustrated variations on the image of an enigmatic, almost Mona Lisa-like face of a woman. The woman was Lina Cavalieri, whose face Fornasetti found while glancing through a 19th Century French magazine.

Originally four plates were designed by Piero Fornasetti - the plate series now has 350 variations.

How about Dale Chihuly bowls? Definitely not something you'd eat breakfast out of, but they're bowls nonetheless. I've got loads of his books and pieces in my house because my dad knows him.
