porcelain bowl

Fine china container

A porcelain bowl is a bowl made of porcelain—a hard, white, translucent ceramic fired at high temperatures.

Porcelain bowls range from everyday rice bowls to decorative pieces valued as art: She served the soup in a delicate porcelain bowl.

The material's smooth glaze and fine texture distinguish it from earthenware or stoneware.
