Description
The Ueda is a decorative bowl in black metal, made as an open geometric frame of wire triangles that rises from a solid round base to a wide, many-sided rim. It measures 30cm across and stands 13cm high, so it is broad and shallow rather than deep, a shape that suits a low, spread-out arrangement more than a tall pile. Because the sides are open, whatever you place inside stays in view from every angle, and the black lines read crisply against a pale worktop or a light wooden table. At 0.39KG it is light enough to lift with one hand.
We think it sits most naturally in a kitchen, a dining room or a living room, on a sideboard, a coffee table or the centre of a dining table. In a hallway it makes a tidy home for keys, sunglasses and the odd letter, and the solid base gives smaller things a flat place to rest. The simple black outline suits a monochrome or industrial scheme, and it works just as well in a Scandinavian room with plenty of white walls and natural wood. Left empty, the frame still earns its place as a sculptural shape on a bookshelf or a mantelpiece.
The frame is built from slim metal wire joined into a repeating pattern of triangles, with horizontal bands tracing the rim and the sides, all in one even black colour. The base is a flat metal disc, so the bowl sits level and steady on a table rather than rocking on its wires. As a piece of decor it belongs indoors. The open sides let air move freely around whatever it holds, and its light weight means it is easy to shift whenever you clear a table for a meal or set out a fresh display.
