    Perhaps it is something to serve a dip in, with the 'dippers' around it on the base? Or is it too big for that?

    The serving dish for a half-grapefruit sounds like a reasonable idea.

  • It's a gravy/sauce dish, the plate is for drips and the ladle.

  • It's a gravy dish.

    I have two, imported from Denmark, as they are used over there in preference to gravy boats used over here (I'm Danish btw, in case you thought I was very odd!).

    Strangely enough, I've never seen one of these on sale over here, nor a gravy boat on sale in Denmark.

    THT,

    That is really helpful.

    The bowl is made by Oneida, so probably more for table use than medical.

    It is stainless steel, so not too valuable. I have the bowl, and took the photo, so know that it is a one piece item. If I had said all this at the beginning, the puzzle might have been easier.

    Thanks everyone.
  • I too would have said a gravy bowl but thought I would be laughed at I have seen them in my friends house and she comes from Copenhagen.
