Studio Nova 'Uptown' Pattern Porcelain Pasta Bowls

This set of four large pasta bowls features a modern, minimalist design characteristic of the Studio Nova 'Uptown' pattern (Y0501). Crafted from durable, bright white bone china or high-fired porcelain, each bowl exhibits a wide, shallow coupe shape ideal for pasta or salad service. The central design motif consists of two intersecting bands of platinum-colored or silvery-gray geometric squares that form a cross-like grid at the basin's center. These squares have a unique 'crackle' or textured fiber-like infill pattern, adding visual depth. The glaze is glossy and uniform across the surface. Regarding condition, the bowls appear to be in good used condition; however, light scuffing and faint utensil marks are visible upon close inspection, particularly where the bowls stack. There are no immediate chips or cracks visible in the provided image. Produced by Studio Nova, a brand under the Mikasa umbrella known for contemporary tabletop designs from the late 1990s and early 2000s, these pieces represent a sleek, high-quality urban aesthetic. The craftsmanship is consistent with mid-tier commercial fine dining ware, offering both functionality and a sophisticated modern style.
