Description: All of the Scalloped Bowls as differentiated from the 4 & 6 lobe bowls have 18 scallops. We have divided these bowls with 18 scallops into 2 categories: shallow and deep. These six are the shallow ones with a depth less than 2 1/2″. Look carefully and you will see every 3rd scallop is slightly larger than the preceding 2 scallops. Shallow bowls are more common and we feel less desirable than the rarer deeper ones. All scalloped bowls have round base rims and the bottoms are glazed. Three flowers decorate the outsides. However, the smallest bowl here has four flowers. The diameter size range for these shallow bowls is: 7 3/4″—-10 1/8″.
