Ceramic Fruit Bowls

269 Ideas by Tara Gosselin

There's something about having a bowl of fresh fruit on your countertop that adds a shot of living color to your kitchen. Combine bright red strawberries with green grapes and dark plums in a trio of hues. Place red and green apples in a bowl for a two-tone effect. Or keep it simple by filling your bowl with bright yellow lemons. And when you arrange your fruit in one of these six white ceramic bowls, their colors will pop even more.

Where to display a porcelain fruit bowl?

You can display a porcelain fruit bowl in several places, but the kitchen and the dining room tend to be the most popular locations. Depending on the coloring of your porcelain bowl, the center of your dining room table and casually placed on your kitchen countertop tend to be two good options.

A trend that we’ve loved seeing is a blue-and-white chinoiserie porcelain fruit bowl filled to the brim with bright yellow citrus. This, placed in the middle of a darker brown hardwood dining table, is a classic yet modern centerpiece that will look good no matter the season.

What else apart from fruits can you store in a porcelain fruit bowl?

As the name implies, fruit bowls were designed to hold fruit making it quick and convenient to grab a healthy snack in a hurry. However, just because this was the original purpose does not mean that you can't have a little fun and use it to inspire a whole new way of thinking.

Porcelain fruity bowls look classy on their own, but to add to their flair consider using them to hold flowers or a variety of pretty little succulents surrounded by white pebbles.

Alternatively, use them to hold unique little candles with colorful pebbles all around or display a string of LED lights inside a lace fruit bowl allowing the light to shine through and create a cosy effect.

Is porcelain a good choice for a fruit bowl?

The decision on whether porcelain is a good choice or not for a fruit bowl varies from person to person.

Porcelain fruit bowls certainly have an elegant appeal that looks beautiful with both traditional and modern decor but nevertheless, this material is exceedingly fragile. Once dropped on the floor, it’ll shatter into countless shards. This just goes to show that a fruit bowl made of porcelain isn't the most practical option for households with little ones running around. You may also want to avoid purchasing one if you’ve got a cat that climbs on your furniture. The last thing that you want is for your cat to push your delicate fruit bowl off the table or counter.

If you really can’t resist the striking designs of porcelain fruit bowls and must get one for your home, it’s better to choose double-fired porcelain, for a little bit of durability and resilience.

Besides their stylish appearance, porcelain fruit bowls can keep your fruits from going bad faster. You can now enjoy your fresh fruits for much longer!
