This large round bowl has been handcrafted from reclaimed Swamp Kauri. The Kauri is slightly darker down one side but still has that golden Kauri sparkle. The grain also has a strong blonde linear streak running through the lip, and because the bowl has a good height to it you get a strong glimpse of this streak running through the end grain. A beautiful thing to observe.
This bowl is a very unique addition to your home, simply use it as a display piece, or perhaps it is a place to keep your treasured trinkets, use it to present a dish at your next dinner party, or gift it to a loved one.
Each of the Wide Lip Bowls are a unique work of art, showcasing the natural variations of our beautiful Swamp Kauri timber, ensuring that no two are the same.

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.
