Description
This cheerful melamine bowl for children carries the Tilde floral design, a bright posy of little flowers gathered in a circle on the inside base. The blooms come in red, sunny yellow, soft blue and pink, each with a small centre, scattered among fresh green leaves and tiny dots. Around them the bowl is clean white, finished with a wide red rim that frames the pattern and gives the whole piece a bold, happy outline. It measures about 16.5cm across and stands 4cm tall, a handy size for a child's portion of cereal, porridge, pasta or chopped fruit.
We think it suits breakfast and teatime at the kitchen table, where a bright bowl can make a meal feel a little more fun. Because the flowers sit in the base, they come into view as the food goes down, a gentle nudge to finish up. It works just as well for snacks, yoghurt and puddings, and at around 108 grams it is light enough to pop in a bag for picnics, visits to grandparents or days out. It also makes a sweet, practical present for a child who loves flowers.
The bowl is melamine and was made in Thailand. It is dishwasher safe on the top rack only and is not for use in the microwave, so warm food in a separate dish and spoon it in once it is ready. Between washes, a rinse in warm soapy water and a wipe with a soft cloth is good everyday practice for melamine. For a cheerful place setting, lay it out with a favourite cup and spoon, or wrap it with a picture book about flowers for a thoughtful little gift that will be used every day.
