Know before you buy
Yes, the bowl is crafted from FSC® certified acacia wood, ensuring that the materials are sourced from responsibly managed forests.
To preserve the wood's finish, hand wash the bowl with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately. Avoid soaking it or placing it in the dishwasher, and periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil to keep the wood from drying out.
While it is designed primarily for salads, fruits, or dry snacks, it can handle room-temperature or cool foods best. Avoid serving piping hot liquids or dishes directly in the bowl, as extreme heat and moisture can cause the wood to warp or crack over time.
With a 17.5-inch diameter and a 470-ounce capacity, this bowl is quite substantial. It is perfectly sized for serving large mixed salads for a crowd or acting as a decorative centerpiece for a significant amount of produce.
The bowl is constructed from individual acacia wood staves, which creates a unique, faceted look. While it is sanded smooth for a comfortable finish, you may feel the subtle seams where the staves join, which is a hallmark of its handcrafted construction.
