Product information for Pavot Bowl
The Audo Copenhagen Pavot Bowl brings that perfect balance of looking like an ancient artifact while feeling completely at home in contemporary spaces. Designed by Colin King, this footed bowl is crafted in aluminum with an elegant aged finish that evokes ancient craftsmanship without being literal about it.

The footed base lifts it off the surface, giving it architectural presence while making it easier to clean underneath.

The aged finish is forgiving about fingerprints and minor handling marks, developing more patina over time rather than looking pristine forever. Works beautifully holding decorative objects like pine cones or ornaments, corralling small items in entryways, or simply sitting as a sculptural element that adds warmth and history to minimalist spaces.
