Product Information

Full details

The BIA International Share Serving Bowl is an ideal choice for home cooks and entertainers who value both aesthetic simplicity and practical utility. Its primary strength lies in its dual-purpose bamboo lid, which seamlessly transitions from a protective cover to a functional serving tray for appetizers or sides. While the bowl's 1.5-litre capacity makes it highly versatile for various food items, users should remember that the bamboo lid must be hand-washed to maintain its integrity, unlike the stoneware bowl which is dishwasher safe.

What is the total capacity of the bowl?

The bowl has a capacity of 1.5 litres, suitable for medium to large side dishes.

Is the bowl microwave safe?

Yes, the stoneware bowl is microwave safe, making it convenient for reheating leftovers.

Will the lid keep food airtight?

What are the dimensions of the bowl?

Is it safe to store the bowl in the freezer?

Yes, the ceramic construction is freezer safe, though you should allow it to thaw slightly before placing it in a preheated oven.

Troubleshooting

Stubborn food residue on the stoneware surface

Soak the bowl in warm, soapy water for 15 minutes before placing it in the dishwasher to help loosen debris.

Bamboo lid appears dry or dull

Apply a light coat of food-grade mineral oil to the wood surface and let it absorb for several hours, then wipe away excess.

Matte finish shows utensil marks

Use a gentle baking soda paste and a soft cloth to lightly buff out grey metal transfer marks caused by stainless steel cutlery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your BIA International serving bowl, follow these care guidelines:

  • Bowl Care: The stoneware is dishwasher safe, but avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that might scratch the matte glaze. It is safe for oven and freezer use, but avoid extreme temperature shocks (such as placing a frozen bowl directly into a hot oven).
  • Lid Care: The bamboo lid should be hand-washed with mild soap and water only. Do not soak the wood, as this can cause warping or splitting. Regularly oiling the bamboo with a food-safe mineral oil will keep the wood hydrated and looking new.
  • Compatibility: Designed as part of the Share collection, this bowl pairs perfectly with other matte grey stoneware pieces from the same line. The neutral grey tone ensures it blends seamlessly with existing white or colorful dinnerware sets.
