Silver bowls

Silver bowls made of 925 sterling silver — prestigious, functional, durable

A silver bowl made of 925 sterling silver is one of those pieces that instantly transforms a room. Whether used as a fruit bowl on the dining table, a candy dish for guests, or a sugar bowl next to the coffee pot, silver lends weight and presence to every bowl. Our collection comprises 34 bowls in various sizes and shapes: shallow plate-like bowls, deep fruit bowls, delicate candy dishes, and bowls with niello decoration , giving each piece a distinctive look. All bowls are handcrafted from solid 925 sterling silver in our workshop.

Why bowls made of sterling silver?

Materials and methods

925 sterling silver is food-safe, antibacterial, and suitable for daily contact with food. A silver bowl does not alter the taste or smell of food—fruit stays fresh, and sweets retain their aroma. Unlike silver-plated bowls, where the thin coating eventually wears off, solid 925 silver lasts a lifetime. The niello ornamentation is applied by silversmiths in over 15 steps: The dark niello mixture is fired into engraved recesses and then polished. The result is patterns that are permanently embedded in the silver and will not wear away.

Care and handling

Silver bowls are designed for everyday use. After use, rinse with warm water and mild dish soap and dry with a soft cloth. To prevent discoloration, do not leave fruit or moist foods in the bowl for extended periods. A silver polishing cloth is sufficient for light patina. The niello decorations are permanently fired on and can withstand normal cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the gilded interior. Not dishwasher safe. Store in the included gift box or with a soft cloth.

Frequently asked questions about silver bowls

Can I place fruit directly into a silver bowl?
Yes. 925 sterling silver is food-safe and suitable for direct contact with food. Remove spoiled fruit promptly, as prolonged contact with acid can cause discoloration, which can be removed with a silver polishing cloth.

Are the niello decorations permanent?
Yes. The niello mixture is fired into engraved recesses and is permanently embedded in the silver. The dark ornaments do not wear off and withstand regular cleaning without any problems.

How big are the fruit bowls?
Our fruit bowls have diameters between 18 and 28 cm. You can find the exact dimensions in the respective product description. For a fully set table, we recommend a bowl with a diameter of at least 22 cm.

Can I have an engraving added?
Many of our bowls offer engravable surfaces—on the rim, the underside, or the outer wall. Contact us; we'd be happy to advise you on the possibilities. A personal engraving makes each bowl a special gift.

Which bowl is suitable as a gift for business partners?
Larger bowls with niello decoration make a particularly impressive statement—they combine function with artistry. Explore our VIP silver gifts with niello for more ideas that will leave a lasting impression.
