The bowl is a daily necessity for people. The origin of the bowl is unverifiable, but it can be traced back to the Neolithic clay pottery bowl. Its shape is not much different from that of today, that is, the mouth has a small bottom, the bowl has a wide mouth and the bowl has a narrow bottom. There are bowl feet underneath, the height is generally half of the diameter of the mouth, mostly round, rarely square. Only the materials, craftsmanship and decoration methods are constantly changing. The general purpose is to hold food. Most Chinese people like to use bowls as food tools, while Westerners prefer to use plates. The bowl can take the homophonic word "pull", which means the meaning of retention, and can be used as a souvenir, symbolizing a better meaning.
Historical tracing
The bowl is a daily necessity for people. The origin of the bowl can be traced back to the Neolithic clay pottery bowl. Its shape is not much different from today's shape, that is, the mouth is small, the bowl is wide and the bowl is narrow, and there is a bowl below foot. The height is generally half of the diameter of the mouth, mostly round, rarely square. Only the materials, craftsmanship and decoration methods are constantly changing. The general purpose is to hold food, because the bowl is smaller than the pot and the bowl and can be served by hand. The wide and narrow form is unstable when placed on flat ground. Archaeologists speculate that the ancients may have used the bowl originally in the pit dug on the ground.
