A container includes a base and conically formed, hollow corner columns that project from the base and are open on the underside of the base. Corner columns of another, structurally identical or compatible container can penetrate into the hollow corner columns of the container from the underside of the base, so that the two containers can be nested. The corner columns can be closed by a slide element so that the container can be stacked on the corner columns of the other container. A side wall projects from the base and is open on the underside of the base. The sidewall is between two corner columns such that a side wall of the other container can penetrate into the side wall from the underside of the base to nest the two containers. The side wall and the corner columns can be closed at the base by a slide element.

The present invention provides a plurality of stackable, space saving system of bowls which may form a three-or four-tiered tower of bowls that are stably locked upright in place using a twist and lock mechanism located on each of the bowls. The bowls are stackable due to having sdifferent-sized, molded, elongated elliptical members that telescopically fit one into the other so that the tower is collapsible into a compact, space-saving configuration. In addition, each of the plurality of bowls may be used singly with an accompanying airtight lid.
