Know before you buy
Fique is a strong, natural fiber native to the Colombian Andes, known for its durability and structural integrity. It is an ideal material for a fruit bowl as it is sturdy enough to hold weight while remaining lightweight and breathable.
Yes, the bowl is safe for dry food storage. However, because it is made of natural, woven fibers, it is best to use it for items with peels or skins, or to line it with a cloth if you are storing loose items like bread or crackers.
To clean, simply wipe the bowl with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging it in water or using harsh detergents, as the natural fibers and dyes can be damaged by excess moisture.
The bowl uses a mix of natural and dyed fique. To maintain the vibrancy of the colors, it is best to keep the bowl out of direct, prolonged sunlight, which can cause natural dyes to lighten over time.
Because each piece is handcrafted by an artisan cooperative in Guacamayas, there may be slight variations in the weave or color placement. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the handmade process and make each bowl unique.
