Size & Technical Details This model is packaged in a 2-piece retail set, making it an ideal choice for couples or small households. Feature Specification Model Number 53983 Set Quantity 2 Pieces Capacity 205cc (approx. 7.35oz) Material Clear, High-Quality Soda-Lime Glass Collection Gondol Detailed Product Description Signature Boat Silhouette: True to its name, the bowl features a curved, elongated shape resembling a Venetian gondola. This design provides a wider surface area for toppings compared to traditional deep round bowls. Horizontal Ribbed Texture: The exterior is detailed with concentric horizontal ridges that catch the light and provide a modern, tactile feel while also improving grip. Stable Rectangular Base: The bowl sits on a thickened, flat rectangular base. This ensures the elongated dish remains perfectly balanced even when filled with heavy toppings like fruit, nuts, or fudge. Superior Optical Clarity: Crafted from premium Turkish glass, the Gondol series offers exceptional transparency, allowing the vibrant layers of your dessert to remain the center of attention. Safety and Hygiene: The non-porous glass is 100% lead-free and food-safe. It will not retain food odors, stains, or bacterial residues between uses. Easy Maintenance: These bowls are fully dishwasher safe, maintaining their polished brilliance and textured detail even after frequent cleaning cycles. Best Use Cases Petite Banana Splits: The elongated shape is perfect for a smaller version of a classic banana split or a "trio" of different ice cream flavors. Fruit Boat Presentation: Ideal for serving sliced melon, berries, or citrus salads in a more sophisticated manner than a standard bowl. Chilled Appetizers: Beyond sweets, these can be used for creative presentations of shrimp cocktails, ceviche, or chilled dips
