Large Black and Green Krenit Bowl by Herbert Krenchel for Torben Ørskov & Co, Denmark, 1953

About This Piece

Vintage Design

This 'Krenit' bowl was designed by mechanical engineer Herbert Krenchel and his good friend Torben Ørskov who put them in production in 1953. They had realised that Americans ate a lot of salad, so they wanted to make a series of bowls for that purpose. The bowls consist out of a millimetre-thick steel plate that was enamelled black on the outside with a glossy colour inside. They were made in nine different sizes; the smallest was about 10 cm and the largest about 30 cm. All were black outside, but in eight different colours on the inside. This particular bowl has a lime green inside and a diameter of 25 cm. It is in a very good condition, with only smaller signs of age and use. The bowl is marked at the bottom.
