⭐ Rare Form Note – Flat-Rim Soup Bowls Are Hard to Find

Flat-rim soup bowls were produced in much smaller quantities than plates and were used as service bowls, not individual soup plates. Their wide rims and delicate construction resulted in a very low survival rate.

Early Herend examples with:

• Botanical raised enamels

• Deep osier relief

• Early impressed marks

• Handwritten codes

are especially rare and highly desirable.

⸻

⭐ Historical Size Note

In the 19th century, 10-inch flat-rim bowls were the standard size for service soup bowls in European table settings.

This size matches documented early Herend forms (25–26 cm).
