Know before you buy
Yes, the dish features a food-safe enamel coating, making it suitable for serving a variety of foods. However, it is not oven or microwave safe, so it should only be used for serving room-temperature or pre-cooked items.
To preserve the wood and the enamel finish, hand wash the dish gently with mild soap. Avoid soaking it in water or using harsh detergents, as these can damage the natural wood grain and the protective coating.
Because each piece is handcrafted from natural mango wood, the grain patterns and striations will vary from item to item. This ensures that your dish is a unique, one-of-a-kind piece.
No, this dish is not dishwasher safe. The high heat and moisture of a dishwasher can cause the wood to warp or crack, so hand washing is required to maintain its integrity.
The mango wood is sustainably sourced from protected groves in India. The pieces are then ethically crafted in small batches by local artisans.
