Live Edge Ambrosia Wood Bowls

Our ambrosia maple bowls meld seamlessly into any home, with their neutral color and natural live edge.
Our ambrosia wooden oval bowls retain their natural edge, and flow in an elliptical, providing a more wild and natural feel. Perfect for the home — living room or kitchen. The amount of ambrosia detail will vary in every piece. An ambrosia bowl may also contain a mixture of spalting and ambrosia. This ambrosia detail may appear in light-brown or medium-brown maple wood. The last photo of the salad bowl and tossers shows the different ambrosia wood color choices (light-brown, or medium-brown).

Each piece is handmade in our workshop in Massachusetts from upcycled New England trees. Our round wooden bowls have a classic smooth edge for a more formal appearance.
