Collecting White Bowls

They've held cake batter and noodle soup, dishwater and cocktail nuts. Through it all, simple white bowls remain eloquent symbols of domestic comfort.

Bowl Display

While beauty may have no price, an artful display can be achieved for little money. These six Japanese soup bowls from San Francisco's Kamei Restaurant Supply cost about $4 apiece. A vintage glass case and two $10 antique children's cocoa cups elevate them to the status of art.

Variety in Color

White bowls reveal a lyrical range of barely there colors, from buttery yellow to foggy blue. The wide dish at front, a milk pan from a 19th-century dairy farm, was used to skim cream. To its left, an all-purpose $4 vessel from Anthropologie nestles inside a porcelain lavatory basin.
