    Thanks for taking the time to do videos on less common, less immediately impressive objects like this. So much content focuses on only the most popular things, so it's really valuable and interesting to be able to learn about simpler (but still gorgeous and fascinating!) objects like this one.

    After getting "bowled" over yesterday, I came back for seconds! 🤭 I feel silly about this, but didn't know that porcelain was made from clay. It's not like I sit around speculating what things are made from, but I suppose I always believed it was its own material of some kind, lol. The way these bowls are described makes them even more appealing: sensuously warm, elegant but not ostentatious, pure... They just sound lovely, are to look at, and I can only imagine the inviting smoothness to the touch. 🥰 It reminds me that even simple objects, masterfully done, can add much beauty to your life.

    I like song maybe because of its simplicity.

    The metal around the rim I would not have guessed. Truly refined.
