Multifunctionality is this product’s raison d’être: it can be used both as a grill – with either a grid or a cast iron slab to cook on – and as a tiltable fire bowl. One special highlight is the availability of two different stainless steel bases that can be used to position Bowl at two different heights. Despite their filigree looks, the bases are extremely steady and create an intriguing contrast with the rustic character of the black enamelled steel used for the hemispherical body.
Jury
Bowl combines two forms that initially seem incompatible: a voluminous hemisphere resting on a very filigree, almost fragile-looking three-legged base. However, this combination is surprisingly steady and also allows the bowl to be tilted away from the wind. A well thought-through leisure product with the necessary flexibility to adapt to various situations.
