MoMA Design Store Wire Mesh Bowl

The open mesh structure promotes consistent airflow around your produce. This ventilation prevents moisture buildup and ethylene gas accumulation, which helps slow down the ripening process and keeps fruit fresh for longer.

No, this bowl should be hand washed only. The powder-coated steel finish is durable, but harsh dishwasher detergents and high heat cycles can damage the coating over time.

While the steel construction provides a sturdy base, the bowl is lightweight due to its airy, netted design. It is perfectly stable for holding a standard amount of fruit, though it is not weighted like a heavy ceramic piece.

The powder-coated finish is designed to be resilient and resistant to everyday wear. However, as with any metal kitchenware, it is best to avoid using abrasive scrubbers or sharp metal utensils directly against the surface to maintain its vibrant appearance.

A soft sponge or a gentle dish brush with warm, soapy water is the most effective way to clean the mesh. If small particles get lodged in the netting, a quick rinse under the faucet usually clears them out easily.
