Pretty and functional

These pretty bowls are great for snacks, condiments, and even a small helping of cereal. They also go well with Teema dishes. So I didn't hesitate to buy this replacement for one that, after many years, was accidentally chipped.

Classic beauty that feels good in your hands.
April 5, 2022
I purchased a set of four of these desert bowls which make everything that goes in them look lovely. Fruits, sorbet, ice cream with sprinkles and chocolate syrup. It like putting out small works of art. To be honest I cracked one of my last ones by hand washing and then nesting it together with another and for some reason they would not come unstuck. I had to put on rubber gloves and run them under warm water. While twisting one of them cracked. Boy did I wail like a baby. After coming out of my Kastehelmi stupor, I purchased another. That is how much I love these little jewels of a bowl. Still have the cracked one. Now it holds my loose change and whenever the light goes on in my closet the light sparkling off my cracked Kastehelmi makes me smile.

Wonderful company, easy purchase, fast delivery and I couldn’t be happier.
Pros
  • -Perfect size for desert
  • -Sturdy
  • -Beautiful on a simple or fancy table setting
  • -decent array of just the right colors (but I use clear)
  • -compliments other lines in the brand
  • -Wonderful company to deal with
Cons
  • -Expensive
  • - Do not nest them together when wet

Brightens the table!

Just simply putting cut fruits and bring to the table. It makes so much difference; looks beautiful and draws appetite. Nice design and relatively light weight though it is a glass.

These are our go to bowls for everything from granola, to yogurt to charcuterie boards! They are so attractive that even a handful of Cheez-its looks dressed up! Great for ice cream portion management and very durable, while looking delicate.

Finn Style is a very well run business
December 30, 2020
we like the bowl and have used it for several years. We bought these bowls to fill in with what we already have. These bowls match the bowls we have.

We had a great experience with Finn Style. They did what they said they would do. We received the bowls undamaged and timely.

Fairly priced

Delicate Yet Dishwasher Safe
December 5, 2018
These beautiful bowls with their dewdrop pattern are the perfect dessert size, and because they are clear they don’t compete with whatever is in them. Although they look delicate, they are dishwasher safe. What more can you ask for?

Beautiful dessert bowls
March 6, 2018
I already had iittala glassware, but wanted to get their dessert bowls. After scouring the web to find a good source that carried a variety of colors and styles, I discovered Finnstyle - and they had the exact color of the Kastehelmi bowls that I wanted.

The bowls look amazing at home, on open shelving, catching the light. Perfect size for dessert. The ordering process was easy and delivery was quick. Lots of email notifications as the ordering and delivery process proceeded, which was nice.

Many thanks!
Pros
  • Beautiful color, fun design, strong tempered glass. Perfect size for dessert.

A 10 out of 10!
August 9, 2015
This is the perfect dessert bowl, not too little, not too big!!! I was so impressed, I ordered the salad plates, together they are gorgeous. I like to put a couple of cookies on the salad plates with gelato or berries with whipped cream in the bowls. Looks gorgeous and tastes yummy. Doesn't food taste better when it is presented beautifully? You will not be disappointed with either item!!!

  • Perfect serving size,and it is beautiful...

Love at first sight
May 5, 2015
Even though I lean toward contemporary style, the whole dew drop set was something that caught my eye. Even though it is "old fashioned", in the clear and darker colors (rain, forest green, grey) it looks great with my black and white dishes. It has held up well and always brings compliments.

Cute dessert bowl
August 16, 2014
Exactly what I expected and what I wanted. Drops/bumps are everywhere even bottom, inside is nice and smooth. I used it for serving ice cream, cut fruits...etc. this cute bowl makes everything so cute and delicious. I bought x4 to try out for a while. I think I will buy x4 more soon.
Pros
  • Perfect size. Angled and straight cut make them stack up nicely.
Cons
  • You can see three lines (seams) and wiggly lines between the dewdrops if look closely.

cheerful and refreshing apple green
January 16, 2014
These apple green bowls make you feel cheerful and refreshing. The color is more beautiful than I expected. I will give some of my friends these bowls as a gift. They will be good for this coming Easter dinner table to bring some fresh spring air. The dewdrop pattern is timeless. The size of these desert bowl is perfect for cold dessert. I think they are durable enough to stack up.
Pros
  • Beautiful color

High Quality (as usual) Glass Bowl, Super Cute!
December 3, 2013
I really like this cute little bowl! It makes food look more delicious. The bowl is a little bit small but Ideal for dessert or fruit (esp. with strawberries in it, the color is amazing!)
Cons
  • The only thing which troubles me, I think, is that I have to put a paper in between bowls when they are stacked for storage.

Cute dessert bowl
April 19, 2013
This applies all the Finnish designs, LOVE the size (not too big). I use these bowls for dessert. A bit large for a scoop of ice cream, but with berries and other toppings, it looks pretty good. A small issue is the color was not what I expected. I thought light blue, but it looks to me having a tiny bit green tone in it and the color is darker. Also, it has two very thin lines that must be marked during the production process. It reminds me of depression glasses. For $19 per bowl, I wish they are not there.
Pros
  • size, design,
Cons
  • two lines visible

DewDrop Dessert Bowls
March 27, 2011
Fun, unusual, and so wonderful filled with sorbet! The unique glass pattern is festive but tasteful, and the textured surface adds a new dimension to the table.
Pros
  • Perfect dessert size and the apple green color is refreshing. The color blends perfectly with my Iittala Origo plates.
Cons
  • I do not want to "stack" them so as to protect the drop design, therefore they will take up a bit more room in the china cabinet...but worth it!
