Why are stoneware bowls valued for everyday use?
Stoneware is fired at high temperatures, giving it a strong, dense structure that stands up well to frequent handling and washing.
How does patterned tableware affect presentation?
Gentle patterns provide a backdrop that frames the food without overpowering it, which can help lighter ingredients stand out more clearly.
Why do restaurants choose bowls of this size for individual servings?
Smaller bowls help portion dishes neatly and keep ingredients together, making the meal easier to serve and more visually appealing.
