You could use it to hold small items like rings or pins. If it's larger, you could put a plant in it.
Marie...Finish breaking it and glue on a tray then use a filler as you would on tile, then finish it with polyurethane to seal.

I agree with Tinyshoes--using it for mosiacs is a great idea. Here's a video on how to break up your bowl if you choose to do so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF4r0YaF5gs

Shatter the bowl into small pieces and use them in a mosaic. You could mosaic a tray, an old lamp base, terra cotta pots and planters, stepping stones, etc.
Thanks to all for such great ideas.
