Here's the thing. The Dunhill bowl sizes are imprecise, since they don't cover tall, skinny bowls or short, stout tones. At least this was my observation when I last looked it up which, admittedly was years ago. That said, I suspect the bowl you describe woud be a group size four, or in that neighborhood. Try Googling Dunhill Group sizes, and you'll see what I mean. When I did this (likeI said, loooong ago) I came across a post from a clever fellow who converted the Dunhill chart to finger sizes -- size one would admit your pinky; size three would be a snug forefinger; size five would hold your thumb. Useful, I thought.
