The bowl was possibly the first utensil made by early humans. The bowl could hold water for drinking and food for eating. It might also be said that bowls were possibly the first containers to hold flowers.

The metal framed Miramar of California planter bowl is an artifact of the 1950s. The chartreuse glaze is enhanced with the addition of bright red blooms.
A futuristic, avant garde pea green bowl, also by Miramar of California, is home to a contemporary styling of mixed elements.
