NasonMoretti Lidia Bowl Small - Red

The Lidia bowl holds historical significance as it was designed by Umberto Nason and won the prestigious Compasso d’Oro award in 1955, marking a milestone for NasonMoretti and Venetian glass design.

This technique, pioneered by Umberto Nason for the Lidia bowl, involves creating a bold, coloured interior that is then encased in a contrasting outer layer, typically milky white in this case.

While made of glass, the Lidia bowl is primarily intended as a decorative art piece. It is not specifically designed or recommended for direct food consumption or preparation.

The cleaning method is the same for the interior and exterior. Use a soft cloth with mild soap and lukewarm water, then pat dry immediately with a clean, lint-free cloth.

No, the bowl is not dishwasher safe. The harsh detergents and high temperatures can damage the glass and its finish. Handwashing is the recommended method.

The 'Lidia' design has been produced in various colour combinations throughout its history. This guide specifically addresses the 'Red' variant with a milky white exterior.

Specific dimensions can vary slightly due to the handmade nature of the product. However, 'small' typically indicates a compact size suitable for accent display.

Gently wipe the surface with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For stubborn marks, use a glass cleaner sparingly on the cloth, not directly on the bowl.

Minor imperfections such as tiny air bubbles are characteristic of handmade glass and are not considered defects, but rather a mark of its artisanal origin.

If a chip occurs, please handle with extreme care as the edge may be sharp. Contact the retailer or NasonMoretti for advice on potential repair or replacement options, though repairs are often not feasible for decorative glass.
