This is definitely very well made serving bowl! The size is perfect for a salad or mashed potatoes. The quality is very nice. It’s a thick and heavy bowl with very unique handles. I love how it looks and can not wait to serve our food in it for the next family gathering. I love supporting USA made products and this product is made in the USA. The dish is made with porcelain, and it does need to be washed only by hand it cannot be put into a dishwasher probably because of the screws and handles. That’s why I gave it only 4 stars! Other wise it’s a beautiful made serving bowl
