Know before you buy
The bowl is crafted from die-cast aluminum and features a matte powder-coated finish. This process creates a subtle, tactile texture on the surface that highlights the quality of the casting.
No, the bowl arrives fully assembled and ready for use right out of the box.
The bowl is designed with sturdy, architecturally inspired planar legs that provide a stable, balanced base. Weighing 5 lbs, it is substantial enough to remain secure on most flat surfaces.
While the bowl is food-safe, its primary design intent is as a sculptural display piece. If you do use it for serving, we recommend hand-washing it gently to preserve the integrity of the matte powder-coated finish.
The bowl measures 12 inches in diameter and 3.75 inches in height. Its generous size makes it ideal for use as a centerpiece or a catch-all for decorative items.
