Signature Housewares Sorrento Collection 16-Ounce Cereal Bowl, Ivory Antiqued Finish, Set of 6
Created by tableware designer and gourmet cook Debbie Segura in 2001, Sorrento is perhaps Signature Houseware's most popular dinnerware pattern. Sorrento stoneware suits almost any kitchen décor with its rustic, Italian countryside feel, showing a raised dot and olive leaf patterning on most of the solid-colored, thickly-glazed pieces. Square plates are also available, and bakeware and glassware complete the extensive collection, now available in more than half a dozen colors ranging from neutral suede to bright ruby red.The Sorrento 16-ounce bowl is so versatile it'll find uses all day long-for breakfast cereal, noontime soup, and after-dinner ice cream. Shaped for stacking with a subtle rim, the six shallow bowls in this set are glazed the same glossy color inside and out, and make a great gift for someone building or starting a Sorrento dinnerware collection. Completely lead-free, the chip-resistant stoneware may go in a low-temperature oven or a microwave for warming food, and cleans up without fuss in the dishwasher.--Ann Bieri
