I like the cheaper (probably Pier One) version of it much, much better. I have had one and was able to actually USE it without worrying about dropping and breaking it.
It is very pretty and a convenient, useful size. What's the point of having a pretty bowl if you can't even pick it up and use it without fear? In other words, this bowl is beautiful but the $0.59 version is also beautiful (especially to the nearsighted like me) and has the extra bonus of actually being useful and something you dare to pick up, examine, and appreciate.
Upper photo: their $5,400,000.00 bowl. Lower photo: my $5.00 bowl. I think mine is prettier. Nearsightedness has its advantages.
