Artful Bowls, Dishes, and Pretty Plates

[ChrissyM]

We have a thread for cutlery, so I thought... why not a thread for bowls/dishes/plates/platters...
stuff you eat off of basically...

was just looking for stuff to contribute to another thread and found this cool bowl by Helia Jongerius on artecnicainc.com..

Deco Plate, Dinner Plate, Side Plate, Soup Plate, Rice Bowl, Medium Bowl

These and the above plates are all designed by Tord Boontje..
I think the subtlety of the colors on this set is probably really lovely in real life

a final selection from that series...

The Boontje sets are beautiful. I love how the horse's mane and the deer's antlers extend out into extravagant branches. The detailing is so pretty...

Next time I go home I'll take pictures of my mom's collection of plates, bowls, etc. I think they were made in Switzerland 50 some odd years ago!

^^I would love to see those!

Personal pics are always great.. especially if they are from switzerland 50 years ago...
sounds like something special

i'm sure i'll find more to post in here soon...

I love the Biscuit collection stuff

I think John Derian's decoupage stuff definately fits. These skeleton plates are really cool

such cool stuff

the first example with the fixed chips are so great..
even though they are technically damaged there is something so elegant about the way that they have been repaired

beautiful! love this thread! so many beatiful plates and dishes! I'd love to start amassing them now but I move around so much I don't want to have to move them as well!

I remember looking at this online and thinking it was cool..
and now we have a thread it will work in so I figured I'd post since I just saw it again!
