Signature Housewares Sorrento Collection 60-Ounce Small Mixing Bowl, Gold Antiqued Finish
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 smallest of three nesting Sorrento mixing bowls, this one measures eight inches in diameter and holds up to 60 ounces, or roughly two quarts, ideal for whisking eggs for an omelet or serving a fresh fruit salad. All three mixing bowls feature a different exterior pattern. The rim band on this small bowl, which helps provides grip, is embossed with Sorrento's signature three-leaf design, while bands of lines and dots run up and down the sides. Alone or with the two larger mixing bowls, this attractive and functional bowl makes a great gift for someone who is building a Sorrento collection. Completely lead-free, the durable, chip-resistant stoneware is safe for use in the microwave, dishwasher, and conventional oven for warming.--Ann Bieri
