Now Designs Terracotta Pinch Bowl Set, Soy Sauce Dish, Set of 6, 1 oz, Multicolor

I use these for everything from olive pits to used teabags. They are great on a charcuterie board. They are even useful in the medicine cabinet for holding small things like mouth guards. Love the variety of colors. I have purchased two sets of these and the first set is now several years old with no chips or cracks. So they are very durable.

I purchased these so I can take pictures with herbs in them for a photo shoot I am doing for my Herbal Business' website I am launching. I have a "lightbox" I am going to use to showcase each herb. These are perfect for tiny, up close pictures for detail. Among other things I can see them being used as dipping saucers for children, soy sauces/ginger/wasabi, condiment holders, and even used to hold small beads and whatnots you may find in your house and just need a small places to drop things like pennies, earring backs, rings, etc....they are very small, these are not made for cereal, soups and cooking...just tiny things...

I have two sets. Very useful and aesthetically appealing. Cute little things!

I use these to organize medications, different ones for pills throughout the day. I work from home and don't need anything with a lid. Easy to grab pills with fingers. Have a couple in the kitchen for cooking. The bowels come in a cardboard box that is colorful suitable as is or wrapping for a gift and shipping bubble wrapped. The shipment came intact- no broken bowels.COLOR: I like the vibrant colors. The assortment-range of colors are pleasing to me. The colors are consistent with the ad (see pic). Note the terra-cotta ring/rim at the top of the bowel. I like the pretty contrast/blend with the colors. The inside is a glossy glazed finish. The glaze in mine were uniform, there were no blemishes / unglazed areas. The color was uniform with no thinly covered areas.SIZE:. Many reviews have remarked that these are small. THESE ARE SMALL. I have attached a picture with a ruler, get out your ruler and see if these are the correct size for you. The outside top diameter is ~2-3/4", the inside top diameter 2-1/4". Although a little rounded the bottom diameter inside is about 1". The bowel is 1" tall. It holds 1 oz (30 mL) liquid. See the 2 pics attached to note the rounded bottoms.FUNCTION: Holds 30 mL/1 oz of liquid, so pretty small, and pinch bowel is an accurate descriptor. Again, I mainly use these for pills, 4 for the time of day. Too small for cat food. More for seasoning "pinch" for cooking, minced spices like small amounts of chives or green onions, ginger, garlic. No problems with glazed inside picking up flavors and having residual smells.The bottoms are rounded, so they may roll a bit, but overall on the desk or countertop not really a problem so far. I have worried the terracotta would pick up oil and stain but have not tested this. I hand wash though and am careful to rinse the soap off well as to not stain the terra-cotta. Terracotta in general is soft, so I haven't uses the dishwasher. The glazed surface cleans readily and colors do seem not stain (haven't tried red beets though). They can stack in the cabinet/shelf, though I probably wouldn't go more than 3-4 high as they would be prone to toppling over. If used on a rough surface the terracotta, like any terracotta is prone to developing white scrape marks.Overall pleased, they are small but not "mis-advertised",great colors, no remorse for buying, 4-star though for size. A 2-4 oz size would be nice.Great community- please hit the helpful button if the extra measurements was helpful, it's motivational to provide the info and pics.

Beautiful little bowls, I leave them on our open shelves. They aren't as deep as others I have bought but are perfect for my purposes.

I really like prepping all my ingredients for cooking before I get into the meat of the process. It makes cooking large dinners for multiple people a bit more organized and food gets on plates faster. These little bowls are great for doing that, and if your guests are in the kitchen with you it makes the cooking process just a bit more aesthetic.The glaze in the middle of the bowls is so smooth that cleaning these are a breeze. And the terracota dries extremely quick. They are also just small enough that storage is no big issue. Definitely a good item to add to the kitchen! And would make a great gift as well.

Comes in a sturdy box, very attractive for a hostess gift. Size is perfect for individual dipping bowls or spice/prep bowls for cooking. The terra cotta in particular is better quality than expected - not just ceramic, it has the slightly rough feel of baked clay & a rich natural terra cotta color. I liked so much I will purchase a set for myself.

cute bowls but packaging could be better some of the bowls arrived broken and all of them had fallen out of the box into the amazon box
