Each piece is a work of art in itself, carved with precision and finished to highlight the natural splendour of the wood. More than just serve ware, these bowls represent a celebration of culinary culture and the organic artistry of nature.
The Natural Beauty of Spalted Beech
Spalted Beech is renowned for its intricate grain and dramatic veining. Every swirl, line, and dark streak is created naturally, making each bowl one-of-a-kind. The warm golden-brown tones interlaced with striking black spalting lines exude rustic charm, adding an earthy yet elegant feel to any dining table. No two bowls will ever be the same, ensuring that your set is as unique as your dining experience.
Artisan Craftsmanship and Quality
Hand-carved by skilled artisans in our Devon workshop, these spalted beech continental food bowls embody the Crystal Woods signature of craftsmanship. Measuring approximately 10 inches square and standing 3 inches high, they are generously proportioned to hold an array of dishes, from hearty rice and noodle bowls to salads, curries, stir-fries, or Mediterranean sharing platters. Their combined weight of 5.7kg provides a reassuring sturdiness, ensuring stability during use and reflecting the quality of solid hardwood construction.
To safeguard both the wood and your culinary creations, each bowl is treated with multiple coats of food-safe oil. This not only enhances the grain patterns but also provides a hygienic and durable surface, designed to stand the test of time.
Complete with Handcrafted Chopsticks
Adding to the authenticity of your dining experience, this set comes with three pairs of chopsticks. Two pairs are carefully crafted from matching Spalted Beech, echoing the unique beauty of the bowls, while the third pair is fashioned from rich American Black Walnut, providing a striking contrast in colour and texture. These chopsticks are not only practical but also enhance the tactile and visual pleasure of dining.
