Know before you buy
No, this piece is not food safe. It is designed primarily as a decorative object or a vessel for non-edible items.
This dish is not dishwasher or microwave safe. To maintain its finish, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges.
The dish is crafted from a combination of stainless steel and both natural and oxidized brass, creating its signature contrasting look.
The bowl has a diameter of 3.75 inches, making it perfectly sized for small decorative accents, keys, or trinkets.
Because the piece features oxidized brass, it is normal for the metal to develop a unique patina over time. You can keep it looking its best by handling it with clean hands and dusting it regularly with a soft cloth.
