Emile Henry Large Food Storage Bowl, 14.1-Inch

A fruit bowl, a root vegetable pantry, and a countertop still life — all in one beautifully considered piece of French ceramics. The Emile Henry Large Food Storage Bowl, 14.1-Inch is a genuinely innovative produce storage solution that uses the natural properties of two materials — high-fired Burgundy ceramic and natural cork — to create the ideal environment for two different categories of produce simultaneously, keeping both fresher for longer without a refrigerator shelf in sight.

The upper level, made of natural cork, serves as a fruit bowl — the cork's natural properties help preserve ripening fruit, maintain freshness, and create a microenvironment that deters fruit flies without any chemical treatment or special maintenance. Apples, pears, peaches, bananas, citrus, and any fruit that belongs on the counter rather than in the refrigerator benefit from the cork surface's gentle, natural preservation properties. The lower level, made of high-fired Burgundy ceramic, acts as a mini pantry — the ceramic body blocks light, maintaining the dark, cool-adjacent conditions that potatoes, onions, beets, garlic, shallots, and unripened fruit require to stay fresh, firm, and free of early sprouting and spoilage. Two environments, one vessel.

The HR ceramic body — Emile Henry's high-resistance formula using all-natural Burgundy clay fired at extreme temperatures — is famous for producing a glaze that is extraordinarily hard, scratch-resistant, and crazing-resistant through years of daily use and regular dishwasher cycles. Lead and cadmium free. Each piece is formed and hand-finished by skilled artisans at Emile Henry's facility in Marcigny, Burgundy, France — Made in France since 1850. At 6.9 quarts and 14.1" in diameter, generous enough for a full week's market haul. Dishwasher safe. 10-year manufacturer's warranty. Model 348765.

Key Product Features

• Two-Level Design — Cork Upper Fruit Bowl + Ceramic Lower Mini Pantry in One Vessel: The upper cork level preserves ripening fruit with natural properties that maintain freshness and deter fruit flies — while the ceramic lower level blocks light to create dark, pantry-like conditions ideal for potatoes, onions, beets, garlic, shallots, and unripened fruit. Two ideal storage environments for two categories of produce, in a single beautifully designed piece.
• Natural Cork Properties Preserve Fruit Freshness & Deter Fruit Flies Without Chemicals: The cork upper level is not merely decorative — cork’s natural properties create a microenvironment that slows ripening, helps maintain freshness, and keeps fruit flies at bay without any treatment or special maintenance, making this the produce bowl that actively works to extend the life of the fruit it holds.
• Ceramic Lower Level Blocks Light — Mini Pantry Conditions for Root Vegetables & Unripened Fruit: The high-fired Burgundy ceramic body blocks light completely, maintaining the dark conditions that potatoes, onions, beets, garlic, and unripened fruit require to stay fresh and firm — replicating the conditions of a traditional root cellar or pantry on any kitchen countertop.
• HR Ceramic — Emile Henry’s High-Resistance Formula — Scratch Resistant, Crazing Resistant, Dishwasher Safe: High-fired Burgundy clay using Emile Henry’s proprietary HR ceramic formula produces an extraordinarily hard glaze that does not scratch from use or cleaning, does not craze over time, and maintains its brilliance through years of daily dishwasher cycles. Lead and cadmium free. Each piece formed and hand-finished by skilled artisans.
