Keystone 13 oz. Vanilla Bean Stoneware Onion Soup Crock - 6/Case

These bowls are absolutely beautiful! They feel sturdy like the rest of the line of acopa keystone plates that we carry but for some reason these bowls chip way easier. We've had about 10 chip since buying them about 6 months ago which is kind of a bummer, especially since we haven't had any issues with the plates chipping at all. Probably will choose a different bowl in the future when we need to reorder just because these have chipped so much. Other than that they're absolutely beautiful and look great with soup, stews, mac and cheese, potato and veggie side dishes in them as well.

The dark color finish of this soup crock gives a great plating finish to our soups and queso flameado. The small holds seem like they won't help in grasping it but you can actually hold it really well! It keeps food hot for our guests. Will order more.

While these crocks are beautiful with great presentation, the thin rim allows for many chips and cracks that become blatantly obvious with continued use at a restaurant. I have bought a significant amount and have found that 90% have chips that can cause concern for physical contaminants as well as a safety hazard for cuts. I wish i could find a sturdier option that is able to last longer than 2 months. i can not purchase again for my current operation, but can see the practicality for a slower-paced set up.
