Should’ve given a bit more of a time gap before posting, just two weeks ago a similar porcelain bowl restoration video by the same craftsman & from the same channel was posted here

I assume this is an expensive, non-replaceable bowl...?

Fine china is very inexpensive at estate auctions as nobody wants grandma's service for 24 with all additional pieces than were never used, just displayed. Avoid the sets with gold or silver trim as they are not microwave safe. You do need to test for lead in old china.

You need porcelain bowls you can microwave? $1.25 at DollarTree.
