xElegant, practical produce storage from Emile Henry
Honor the kitchen’s pace with a two-level keeper that blends timeless craftsmanship with everyday utility. The Emile Henry Blue Flame Ceramic Storage Bowl is a 14.1-inch solution designed to help you organize fruit and vegetables in a single, stylish unit. Its generous 6.9-quart capacity provides room for a week’s worth of produce, while the two-tier design unlocks flexible storage options for your pantry and counter space.
The upper cork lid doubles as a natural fruit bowl, inviting you to display seasonal picks or ripening fruit within easy reach. Beneath it, the ceramic lower section acts as a compact pantry, ideal for potatoes, onions, beets, and fruit that isn’t ready to ripen. The cork’s natural properties help maintain a fresh feel and can deter small pests, while the ceramic body keeps light out, helping preserve the visual appeal of your produce. Together with cork’s insulating qualities, this setup helps sustain a stable microclimate similar to a traditional cellar—without sacrificing style in the open kitchen.
Why this bowl stands out

Practical daily use and care tips

- Store potatoes, onions, beets, and unripe fruit in the darker, ventilated ceramic lower level to minimize premature spoilage
- Wipe gently with a damp cloth to preserve the glaze and color; avoid harsh abrasives
