Will this date horribly?

What do you think... will this range date horribly? www.nordicnest.com/brands/broste-copenhagen/grod-bowl/

"date" ??

It's a bowl

Its quite a nice bowl. Does it matter if it isn't the height of fashion in a decade?

Think the heat has definitely gotten to some people today 😂😂

Will it date? Do you mean will it romance other kitchen items? Not sure, is it up for a good forking?

As that style of bowl has been going since the 1970s and is still popular i dont think theres much danger of it looking outdated and scandi style never dates

Oh, how I love Mumsnet. Thank you ladies! It was the part glazed thing and the speckles... as you can tell, I know nothing about this and I thought perhaps that was a “now” thing.

If you are interested in keeping up with the latest trends, then yes it will. Just the same as the brown bowls in the 70s that were replaced with red and white spotty ones in the 80s, then eternal beau, then possibly something teal… just look in the charity shops to see what has gone out of fashion.

Does that matter? Not one jot if you like it. I think it is lovely.

I have an eclectic range of China, though, and no interest in fashion.

That made me laugh.

It's a boring basic bowl

Hardly the Prince splashback from the other day 🤣

😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂

It will be retro in no time at all.

It's really pleasing and looks '70's.

Pmsl I was prepared to see a grey kitchen and shout YES!!!!

It's part glazed because you can't put glazing directly on the kiln shelf as it sticks, so they make a feature of it.

I really like it and by the time it dates you'll have broken them all. They just look like nice rustic bowls to me and thank God they're not grey!

What the hell was the prince splashback?

Is that the price for one bowl?!

Everything "dates" , isn't that how the passage of time works?

Wish I overthought £13 purchases like you OP. I'd be a lot richer.

I imagine the OP is considering the whole set.

You may also be able to find a local potter who makes similar www.whitehorsepottery.co.uk/product/Benjamin-bowl

With the lifespan of crockery in my household I'd be bankrupt long before it had a chance to date !

I really like it. I have some speckly tableware myself (Denby Halo range). I bought it because my auntie had similar when I was little and I always admired them so I don't think it would really date.

I want to know this too!

@AreolaGrande please enlighten us!

🤷‍♀️I’ve got bowls that are older than my dog, he’s 14, no one has ever fainted or refused to eat from them or run away in horror from them.

I like it but then I grew up in the seventies. To my eyes it is a classic design and if you get several years’ use out of it and your tastes change at some point in the future and you decide you want a different design, it won’t owe you anything.
