Brushed stainless-steel snack bowls for nuts, olives, berries or dessert, in a deep 7.4 oz or a wide 8.5 oz size.

The designer: Nina Thöming

Nina Thöming (born 1984) is an industrial designer with Flöz Design, a German studio that has worked with blomus for about 15 years. She begins every project by researching what people need and where the market falls short, then turns those findings into objects that are useful first and beautiful too. Her other blomus designs include the PILAR tableware, the MODO and SONO bath ranges and the SPIRIT lantern.

Why we carry it

We are an authorized blomus retailer and have been curating design-led pieces for the home since 2009. BASIC is the blomus breakfast-and-snack series we recommend to customers who want serving pieces that never go out of style: brushed stainless steel, clean lines and sizes that stack and combine on a tray. blomus is a family company run by the fourth generation of the Blome family in Sundern, Germany. It began in 1921 making bicycle parts, moved into copper, brass, pewter and stainless-steel design pieces in 1961, and has worked under the blomus name since 2000.

Buy once: durability and care

Wash in warm, soapy water and dry with a soft cloth. blomus does not list this piece as dishwasher safe, so our advice is to wash it by hand. Stainless steel does not take on flavors or odors, so the same piece moves from butter to jam to nuts without a second thought.
