While non-leaded and perfectly safe for serving food, it also makes a lovely display bowl for a coffee-table, centerpiece, or on a console, yet could also be hung on a wall or framed in a shadow box.

It measures 6.75" in diameter on the bottom, 10.5" in diameter along the top rim, and is 2.25" in height, and is marked "K. E. - MEXICO" on the bottom. less
