There are bowls that hold food, and there are bowls that hold the occasion. The Crimson Noel Deep Bowl holds both. At 10 inches across and 86 ounces deep, it is the vessel the holiday feast turns to for its most generous and dramatic family-style presentations the overflowing winter salad, the fragrant pasta tossed in holiday warmth, the seasonal soup served table-side with ceremony and care. The bold crimson botanical toile sweeps around the full rim and curves down the deep porcelain sides: oversized poinsettia blooms in fine engraving linework, sharp graphic holly, winding pine and vine against the luminous white ground. Bold, beautiful, and entirely in command. Centre it. Fill it generously. Let the crimson botanical world announce that the feast has truly, magnificently begun that the table is dressed, the gathering is gathered, and the season has arrived in its fullest, boldest, most beautifully crimson form.
