Love It or Hate It? Thorsten van Elten Still-Life Bowl

The Thorsten van Elten Still-Life Bowl ($100) is a fruit bowl made from a glazed earthenware dish outfitted with an oak frame that can be set horizontally or vertically, so you can create your very own still life without even getting your paint brush wet. Yeah, you might prefer a van Gogh, but you can't have everything, can you?

I'd like it better sans frame. What's wrong with just a pretty bowl and beautifully colored fruit?

Get a great square wooden bowl, buy some hinges, attach a picture frame, lean back, enjoy the view. LOVE the idea. Will probably try to do this in my own home. Keep it on a mantle or bookshelf with fruit in it. But would never pay $100 for it.

I love it! I wouldn't spend $100.00 on it either though.

I don't love it, but I don't hate it. And I also wouldn't spend $100 on it when I could probably do it myself. But it's a great idea.

Ok, now that's just funny! Gotta love a piece that's functional and witty...

I love it. I think it's a great conversation starter. Plus, it can made to fit any seasonal decor.

This is fabulous! Very cute -- I'm almost tempted to get it and draw it as a real still life :]
