I don't believe in too nice to use. Nothing lasts forever and I prefer to enjoy using lovely things than just looking at them, even at the risk of breakage.

I might have made a different choice as far as the flippers were concerned. They look vulnerable to breakage.

Bearing in mind that I am a user rather than a designer of such things, I might have pulled the flippers around to rejoin the bowl so they didn't have those fragile, pointy tips.
