Krenit salad bowl

Herbert Krenchel / Normann Copenhagen

£21, servers £11

The Krenit salad bowl is already a classic for those in the know. Designed by Herbert Krenchel in 1953, the bowl, originally enamel, was one of the first of its kind to be seen in Europe after distributor Torben Ørskov spotted a gap in the market for the American way of eating salad. The enamel design dropped off the production line in 1965 but forty years on it's been snapped up by Normann Copenhagen and given a melamine makeover in the process. Our favourite elements are still intact; namely the contrast between the glossy interior and matte exterior, the shallow, concave sweep of the bowl and the elegant Japanese-inspired servers.
