Thanks.

The interior of the bowl is a cylinder so I first wrote a macro to place 
stones on a disk surface and then layered several disks (with some shift 
in stone placement) to give the illusion that the bowl is filled. The 
trick is ok if you're looking from far enough because there are some 
intersections with the bowl in fact. Furthermore, each stone is given 
some random rotation to give the illusion it was dropped.
I can post the macro if you're interested.
