What a great way to serve soups or stews made on your Pomaireware pots than on this beautiful soup bowl. The bowl is 5.5 inches wide with a narrowing mouth and holds 20 os. It is of unglazed earthenware, thick and good at heat retention. They can be used in the oven or broiler, on a stove top, over a an open flame or even on charcoal if you need to finish some cooking or to serve au gratin. The outside finish is the result of a smoking process which results in an uneven dark brown exterior.
