4½″ Ceramic Rice Bowl — 9 fl. oz.

The empty low-angle view emphasizes the dark-blue exterior, orange and white fish, white wave motifs and short ring foot. Its contrasting colors can serve as a decorative accent beside simpler tableware without requiring a matching set.

The listed 4.5-inch diameter and 2.25-inch height help you compare its footprint and profile with the rest of your setting. Choose it as a separate bowl for the course you intend to serve, rather than assuming it shares the capacity of another similarly patterned design.

Translucent beige pieces, tan powder and a dark drizzle create a layered sweet-course presentation. Keeping the pieces visible between the powder and drizzle preserves the contrast between their smooth surfaces and the darker topping.

The slender wooden pick rests outside the bowl at the lower right rather than obscuring the food. For a separate sweet course, leave enough space beside the bowl to set down the pick between bites. Food and the pick are not included.
