Beautiful pasta bowls

119 replies

We have now finally broken enough of our ugly chipped pasta bowls that I have an excuse to buy new ones.

i need them to be beautiful! Preferably colourful. Maybe with birds or flowers or animals on them.

Love Anthropologie china but they don’t seem to have pasta bowls that fit the bill currently.

Don’t mind them being a bit expensive but need to not be so much that I’ll mind when someone inevitably drops one in the sink and breaks it.

Please help!

Have you tried TkMaxx or Home Sense? They often have lovely, bright coloured crockery.

Interested in this thread?

OMG get to b&m right now. They’ve got pink and green ones let me see if I can find them

I bought some beautiful ones from Temu £21 for 6, just like the very colourful ones up the page. Boho set, they also have cereal bowls to match.

Your "colourful with birds and flowers" preference made me think of Sara Miller's bright designs.

Oliver Bonas have some nice bright ones in

The Emma Bridgewater medium pasta bowl with a tomatoes design is fabulous for storing your tomatoes on your worktop. I asked my mum to get me one for a gift and she loved it so much she got herself one too!

I bought some very similar to these on Tik Tok recently. They haven’t arrived yet so can’t comment on quality. They’re oven and microwave proof.

Oooh, I’ve now fallen down a delightful rabbit hole full of fab pasta bowls!

Mikasa ones (like in the Fenwicks link) are beautiful, they have lots of designs.

I like these the best, or the Royal Doulton.
