The Year of the Pig- those who were born in 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007 or 2019 are born under this Chinese Zodiac sign. Those born in these years are said to be compassionate, generous and diligent. This bowl ships with a pair of reusable chopsticks as pictured. Created in my New Jersey studio from stoneware clay. Measures 5 x 4 and holds 20 ounces. Made from lead free, eco friendly materials- kiln fired twice to 1900 degrees. Safe to place in the dishwasher and microwave. Made to be used and enjoyed. Unique milestone birthday gift.
