Approximate dimensions: bowl is 12 inches in diameter. The acrylic stand comes with the piece or, you may request a stand which holds the bowl up 5 inches, for ease of serving foods. Example in "Tropical Bowl" in featured art category, also. This bowl is done in background shades of blues and pinks. The sea fan is created in dark steel blue, French vanilla, and medium blues. Where the steel blue and vanilla met, it turned almost black, with brown tones--a chemical change between these two colors. There are tiny metallic gold dots over the entire sea fan. This will be a conversation piece, whether used to serve food, or to display as an art piece.
