<p>[QUOTE="Zinnie, post: 438457, member: 9303"]Looking at it more, it appears the inside wasn't carved out to reflect the outer shape. I didn't see that first time. And now it makes more sense that this is an inside the house item where the large 'lip' would be used to pass the container around, especially if hot food is inside, and thus not get burned. The photos don't show the underside of the lip so I may be wrong if there's too much slope to make grabbing possible. It's certainly gorgeous, whatever it's purpose. If you don't sell, what will you use it for?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
