What type of bowl to choose?
Deep bowls will be perfect for salads, metal baskets will hold a lot of fresh fruit, and on the plates you will be able to display not only cake but also other types of sweets or snacks. When choosing a bowl, take into account what you will use it for.
Bowls
Decorative one will work in the living room or dining room, simple one will be perfect for serving salads or lining fruit.

What kind of material should a bowl or a plateau be made of?
Depending on the style of your interior, you can choose between metal, glass, porcelain, wood and plastic bowls or a combination of these materials. When deciding on a particular model, pay attention to the cleaning method recommended by the manufacturer (not all bowls and plates can be dishwashed).
Metal
The most popular metal used for bowls, baskets and plates is steel, sometimes raw, sometimes enamelled. Matt or shiny, silver or with a colour coating - steel is a universal and timeless material. It looks good both on its own and in combination with wood, glass or plastic. Metal gives the greatest possibilities when it comes to the shape of dishes, so the choice of bowls and baskets made of this material is the widest.
Wood
Wooden trays, baskets or bowls are a great addition to interiors where wood dominates. Dark, made of exotic varieties of wood will fit into traditionally furnished rooms, while light ones will perfectly complement Scandinavian arrangements. Dishes made of hand-finished wood can be used as trays, bowls, as well as impressive boards for serving snacks. In our shop's offer you will also find unique fruit baskets made of rattan, which will also work as containers for storing personal trinkets.
Plastic
How about a bowl shaped like a thick marker or an apple top with a characteristic tail? Plastic can be shaped freely, and if it is accompanied by good design, the effect is guaranteed! You also have the largest selection of colours among the plastic bowls, so if you want to liven up your kitchen or living room with a colourful accent, choose one of the products made of this material.
Glass
They can be hand-blown, as in Danish Holmegaard products, of different thickness, transparent and colourful. It can have a classic, oval shape, simple, geometric form or richly decorated surface. For lovers of the latest trends we offer crystal bowls, referring to the once popular in Poland "crystals", but with much more modern lines and architectural character.
Ceramics
Porcelain is a material that warms the interior and gives it a homely, idyllic character. Ceramic bowls can also serve as vases for soups, sauces or single-pot dishes. In our offer you will find bowls decorated with patterns of famous designers, such as Arne Jacobsen or Kaja Francka. You can choose a simple bowl in a strong colour or a ceramic bowl with an imprint of original Tove Jansson characters from the Tove Jansson fairy tale about Minions.
