Alluring in their simplicity and natural beauty, these gnarled bowls are not just useful, but have a great story behind them. Each bowl is made from the stump of a Chinese Fir called Shan Mu from the mountains of Central China. Artisans painstakingly hollow the stumps, sand them to a smooth finish, and seal them to be food safe. Throughout this process, the artisans strive to maintain the unmistakable touch of nature. Because of this, each platter is completely unique. Although the platters are food safe, they are not recommended for hot food service. Also perfect for displaying objects or as a centerpiece. Made in China.

Comments aboutHANDMADE ARTISAN ROOT BOWL:
The quality of the bowl was very good and for the price, I think it's very nice. Unfortunately, the bowl I got was a blonde color and did not go with the decor in my home. I have rustic decor/furnishings with darker colors, and was hoping it would look like the photo. It was almost all one color and had very little variation like the photo. It was also much smaller than I was expecting. Even smaller than the dimensions listed.

Comments aboutHANDMADE ARTISAN ROOT BOWL:
The bowl is beautiful, but it is quite a bit smaller than you might think. We got the "large" one and it is about 5" deep and 10" across. Really does not hold much, but is a nice accent piece.

I bought this bowl as a wedding gift for friends. They are already well established and they absolutely love the bowl. They have "rooted" it on the coffee table in their family room so that they can enjoy looking at it.
