The APS Element sloping bowl is a food-safe concrete serving vessel designed for buffet and table service presentation. The angled profile tips the contents towards the guest, making snacks, nibbles, bread, dips, olives, salads, fruit and similar cold items easier to see and reach without extra risers or display props. It comes in three sizes: 220mm, 260mm and 295mm. Choose your size from the dropdown.

Made from concrete, the bowl has a tactile, matte finish that works well alongside other natural-material tableware, and sits well in both natural and industrial table settings. The weight gives it a settled, stable presence on a buffet counter or dining table, and the base is finished to avoid scratching or marking furniture and linen.

  • Concrete construction gives a contemporary, natural-material aesthetic
  • Sloping profile improves guest visibility and access to contents
  • Furniture-friendly base protects table surfaces during service
  • Food-safe material suitable for direct food contact
  • Sold singly, so quantities can be matched to a layout

These bowls are for ambient or cold food presentation only. They are not suitable for hot food service, microwaves or ovens. We recommend hand washing, as repeated commercial dishwasher cycles can be harsh on porous natural materials. Concrete can chip at the edges if knocked, so take care when stacking and storing. Larger sizes add meaningful weight when full, so allow for that when staff handle several pieces during set-up and breakdown. The sloping rim works best when guests approach from one direction. Dimensions, weights and capacities for each size are in the specifications, and prices differ by size.

If you are building out a larger buffet display or need to understand how these pieces sit within a broader table scheme, the APS Element range includes complementary pieces and the team is happy to talk through what works well together.

Frequently asked questions

Is this bowl suitable for hot food service?

Concrete is not an ideal material for hot food service — it does not retain heat in the way ceramics or cast iron might, and thermal shock can affect the finish over time. This bowl is best suited to ambient or cold buffet items such as snacks, dips, bread, and nibbles rather than hot dishes.

Can this bowl go through a commercial dishwasher?

We would recommend hand washing for concrete pieces. Repeated commercial dishwasher cycles can be harsh on porous natural materials and may affect the surface finish over time. Wiping down with a damp cloth is generally sufficient given the type of food items this bowl is designed to present.

Does this bowl work as part of a wider APS Element display scheme?

Yes — the APS Element range includes a number of concrete pieces in coordinating finishes, so this bowl can sit alongside other items in the range for a consistent look across a buffet or sharing table. If you are planning a larger display setup, it is worth getting in touch so we can help you build a scheme that works cohesively.
