tazza

Shallow stemmed dish

A tazza is a shallow ornamental bowl or dish mounted on a stem and foot, resembling a wide-mouthed wine glass.

The form appears in metalwork, glass, and ceramic from the Renaissance onward, often used for serving or display: a silver tazza holding fruit, a pair of Venetian glass tazzas.
