The natural impressions on the corner of this bowl were a happy accident. A piece of Walnut I had been saving finally found its purpose. The rich, dark walnut grain shifts from dense and pearly to open and fluid, almost resembling an half avocado where the grain meets itself.

It’s generously sized, about the proportions of a dinner plate. While it’s functional in many ways, it’s also one of those pieces you’ll find yourself admiring as it plays with the light.

Care

To care for your bowl hand wash in warm soapy water, do not put your bowl in the dishwasher or leave soaking in water. Keep out of direct sunlight.

All wide lip bowls have been finished with food safe New Zealand made beeswax. If you would like to refinish your bowl you can use our Spoon Oil, or a Coconut Oil. Using a cloth massage in about 1/2 tsp oil, let the bowl sit, then buff off with a dry cloth.

 

About

Goods are made using both responsibly sourced, and reclaimed native New Zealand timbers, and donated off-cuts.

Each item is individually hand made in Auckland, New Zealand by Courtney Petley, and is completely unique in form and grain. Each piece is one of a kind.

Any and all impurities, cracks, knots, or nail holes in the timber are a sign of the natural material it is, and it's previous use. I consider these markings a thing of beauty, and I have preserved and included these purposely to celebrate and honour the history, age, and natural beauty of the timber. Some larger cracks have been secured with food safe adhesive, and/or a butterfly joint.
