V20 Ildpot bowl, large

The Ildpot bowl is part of the 1970s popular stoneware collection that has been reintroduced by the Danish company FDB Møbler. The Ildpot series is based on a very unique ceramic material that can distribute heat perfectly and withstand large temperature fluctuations. Designer Grethe Meyer aimed at creating a highly versatile stoneware range that would be equally well suited for cooking, serving and storing food. The Ildpot bowls and dishes can be moved directly from freezer to oven, from oven to dining table and from dining table to dishwasher.

Originally released in 1976 by Royal Copenhagen, the Ildpod collection went out of production in the 1980s because of changing trends. However, its popularity has recently revived, and the dishes have been in high demand in the second-hand market. Thanks to FDB Møbler’s relaunch, the iconic tableware series is again available for everyone. The timeless character, calm colour palette and light, stackable design make the Ildpod collection ideal for contemporary dining.

Danish FDB Møbler is strongly rooted in the icons of Danish furniture design. FDB, the Danish Consumers’ Co-operative Society, was founded in 1940 to produce functionalist and democratic design for ordinary people – thanks to the new industrial production, FDB could manufacture high-quality furniture at low prices. During the next decades, designers such as Børge Mogensen and Poul M. Volther created numerous timeless pieces of Danish furniture design. FDB closed its factory in 1980, but in 2013 the Danish Coop launched FDB Møbler and started re-releasing some of the most beloved products of the mid-century Danish design. In addition to the classics, FDB Møbler creates new furniture inspired by the old collections.
