You may be familiar with the iconic Krenit bowl, but do you also know that Herbert Krenchel designed a very minimalistic salad set that went  into production in 1953.

With a simple and clean expression, the Krenit series is a modern classic that lets function and aesthetics play perfectly together. →Buy Krenit Salad Set White or →Buy Krenit Salad Set Black

The Krenit Bowl is once again available for all Krenit lovers. The classic shape is retained; however, the material is melamine.  


Normann Copenhagen is proud to announce our cooperation with the fascinating Herbert Krenchel who designed the design icon; the enamel Krenit-bowl in 1953. 

Herbert Krenchel explains: “As the production stopped in 1966, it was natural to turn to melamine which is a harden plastic of extraordinary high quality and at the same time the material used for the salad set. The Krenit Salad Bowl in melamine is, in my opinion, a great bowl with the same qualities as the enamel Krenit Bowl – especially in use with the Krenit Salad Set.”
