DESCRIPTION: Vivid colors, Brilliant design, Exceptional serving piece! This Noritake serving bowl can be matched with the most moderne table setting, casual or formal. On white porcelain, the checkerboard black and white border is enhanced with gold rim and gold pierced handles with an interesting effect. The stunning design portrays a bountiful harvest of grapes, artichokes, persimmon, cherries, and sunflowers. The harvest is woven together with yellow ribbon and leafy greenery. In the center of this intricate bowl is an urn filled with the same harvest depiction on crème color. The interior of the bowl has a satin glaze with a glossy glaze on the white porcelain exterior. This is a fantastic serving bowl!

WHY I LIKE IT: I especially like the vivid colors and design that is perfect for late summer and autumn dining. To this serving bowl, I would add a large round underplate (moderne or vintage) and flourish it with harvest grapes, cheeses and artisan crackers.
