Great size!
November 24, 2024
As additional pieced find their way into my iittala Taika dish set, the 20 ounce bowl is a perfect serving bowl. It is just right for both a singular hearty helping or a side dish.

Whimiscally gorgeous!
July 26, 2023
We have six of these great bowls, which are beautiful with their cobalt background and foxy motif. They're a good size for soup, cereal, a generous salad portion but also for serving nuts, candy, and so on. As noted, they do take up a lot of space in a dishwasher or dish drainer but their looks and practicality otherwise far outweigh that issue. :o)

Generously sized soup bowls
February 1, 2022
These lovely bowls hold about two cups of soup--or whatever else you like. They look especially nice atop the salad plates. The vibrant colors and folkloric pattern make for a cheerful table setting. And they go in the dishwasher or microwave, so you don't have to take special care of them. I'm sure I'll be enjoying them for many years.

February 20, 2021
Our family really likes the unique Taika design (Finnish for "magic"). These bowls are a good size for dishful of whatever you really like--a hearty soup, a small dinner salad, a big bowl of your favorite ice cream. What great quality as well.

These bowls look great with my red Taikka mugs. It’s such an interesting and intricate china pattern.
Pros
  • The bowls seem nice and sturdy.
Cons
  • The bowl shape makes them hard to stack in the dishwasher or dish drainer. They take up a lot of space.

Joyful, beautiful bowls perfect for soup, salad and noodlees
December 20, 2018
These magical and tremendously useful bowls add a touch of whimsy to our family’s daily table. We find that they work well for soups, stews, chili, noodle dishes, and individual popcorn bowls — really, nearly anything. Our six year old loves the design, and the blue ones blend with all our other dishes beautifully.
Pros
  • Beautiful design
  • Stack well
  • Dishwasher, oven and microwave safe
  • Great for myriad dishes

Most of my plates and bowls are solid colors, so it is nice to be able to combine these ornate pieces with something simple and vice versa. These are heirloom items for everyday and special events.
Pros
  • artistic, designs vary a bit as the collection adds new motifs to acquire
Cons
  • the price is too high for me when not on sale, which is why I love the great markdowns!

iittala Taika Red 20 oz Bowl
December 11, 2015
Once I fell in love with the dinner plates, I decided to get the smaller plates, the mugs and the 20 oz. bowls. I used the bowls for chips, dip, nuts & grapes for a little holiday wine & cheese, etc get-together. All the dishes are very high quality, and amazingly sturdy given the refined detailing and design. Fun to use.

Not just for holidays!

I love these bowls (perfect shape and size for many purposes) - so much so that I just bought two more - so happy to see the red again. And the free mug was a great bonus - it too is a great shape and size. Also, all arrived quickly and perfectly packed. Thank you!!!

Whimsical design
May 1, 2015
How many bowls make you smile? Zero? Well , I love the whimsical design on these bowls. It makes me smile every time I use it. That alone deserves a four star rafting.
Pros

By Martha

February 7, 2015
I've loved iittala Taika for years, and I just happened upon this red bowl while perusing Finn Style. The second I saw it, I had to have it. I adore Taika in blue, and red is not usually one of my favorite colors, but this pattern in this red is sensational!
Pros
  • Size works for many different uses.
By Danish L.

What fun
December 18, 2014
Great for snacks - stylish
Cons
  • too many labels - three sticky ones, one clear one that you almost can't see and is stuck like it should never come off and it almost stayed. Not made in Finnland.

Perfect bowl, many uses, durable
January 24, 2014
I absolutely love the animated owls on Taika! I started my set with a dinner plate and several coffee mugs, then two smaller bowls, and now the 20 oz. bowls. Aside from the disappointment of being made in Thailand and NOT Finland, these are formal, casual, durable pieces. The blues are brilliant and bright and red is equally as rich. The white gives you a clear picture of the many details of the artistry within the design. My kids love to use the bowls which are perfect for cereal, soup, snacks, grapes, etc. Balance and weight make tipping of the bowl no longer a worry. Dishwasher safe and has not faded colors in over 6 years of daily use of the coffee mugs. I'm certain the bowls will be the same.
Taika pieces are so decorative I use them for parties as well. Highly satisfied!!
Pros
  • Durable, colorful, balanced, no fading from dishwasher
Cons
  • Not enough sales!

I love these Taika pieces. They're beautiful and well-made. I haven't had them for long, but they've been through the dishwasher many times and are holding up well. The only thing I wish was that the full line of pieces was available in red!

Great bowls for cereal, soup and salad.
March 28, 2011
We love this line of dinnerware. We have waited fifteen years and finally found a pattern we both love with quality we are willing to purchase.
Pros
  • The 20 oz. bowl is a very nice size for cereal, soup or salad. This dinnerware is very high quality and we have a couple of pieces that are over two years old and you can hardly tell.
Cons
  • These bowls do not nest in our dish drainer like other bowls do, so they either take up a lot of space or have to be placed rather precariously.

Great piece, especially for the holidays since it is red. Mixes and matches with my other taika print items. I only bought one, so it is a perfect serving dish for nuts and candy. The whimsical animals show up better on my white and blue pieces.
