Nambe Tri-Corner Mini Serving Bowl — 4.5-Inch Metal Dish
Product description
A TIMELY ICON: The Tri-Corner Mini Bowl revives one of Nambe’s early silhouettes, defined by a gently rounded form that subtly narrows to three delicate rim points. The soft curve and balanced base create a refined, sculptural presence that complements contemporary and vintage settings.
KITCHEN TO TABLE: Designed to move from the prep area to the dining surface, this piece tolerates both cold and heat — suitable for freezer chilling or oven use for warmed presentations. Use it for dips, hummus, dressings, salsas, guacamole or as a chilled vessel for salads and sides.
DESIGN HERITAGE: This is an original Nambe creation rooted in mid-century modern aesthetics. The collection celebrates enduring design, crafted to resonate across generations with an emphasis on emotional connection, functional elegance and reliable quality.
CRAFT & DETAILS: Sold as a single Tri-Corner Mini Bowl. Constructed from Nambe Alloy with a polished metallic finish. Care: hand wash and dry immediately to preserve the surface. Design credit goes to Richard K. Thomas (1967), part of the Tri-Corner collection.
SIZES & USES: Listed dimensions include 2 x 4.5 x 4.5 inches; other references note an approximate 4-inch diameter and about 3 inches in height. Compact enough for earrings, candies or small snacks, yet striking enough to stand alone as a decorative object.

Tina Bianchi 5/5
High quality but petite
Excellent finish and weight. The 4-inch size was tinier than I expected; consider a larger version if you need more capacity.

Timeless heirloom
Highly recommend as a hostess gift. I own a larger version that’s 40+ years old and it still shines after a polish.

Dimensions misleading
The listed dimensions were incorrect for my order; it’s much smaller than the stated 7.5 x 4 inches. I returned it because it didn’t match the specs.
