The collapsible kitchen accessory is made for a thin, powder coated steel material that is available in four different colors. The collection includes bowls in red, white, black, grey and green finishes, each acting as a vivid and modern addition into one's home. This cleverly conceived bowl collection has been designed for contemporary home retailer Pulpo and features two models that vary in a smaller and larger size.
