Melamine Soup Bowl - Sky Blue

A soup bowl in melamine, finished in a clear sky blue that lands somewhere between a swimming pool and an April sky. Melamine bowls are what you reach for when the meal is happening outside, on a picnic blanket, on a boat, or at a table where somebody is very likely to knock something over. Ceramic in that situation is a gamble. This one takes chili, cereal, ramen, pasta, or a scoop of berries and cream, and the solid color means it plays nicely with whatever plates you already own. It works as one of the kids bowls in the cupboard, and it is good looking enough that the adults will use it too, which is the whole argument for outdoor dinnerware in a real color rather than beige. Is melamine microwave safe? Melamine is not microwave safe; the material can overheat and degrade when microwaved, so melamine dishes should not be used to reheat food. Most melamine serveware is intended for cold and room-temperature serving and is typically washed on the top rack of a dishwasher.
