This large 15-inch wooden bowl is made to anchor a table. It’s generous without being bulky—big enough for a family-style salad or a mountain of roasted vegetables. When it’s not filled with food, some folks use it to gather seasonal fruit, decorate a kitchen island, or let it sit by itself in the center of the table.
The wood comes from Ambrosia maple, a pale hardwood streaked with smoky grays and browns. Those streaks are left behind by the Ambrosia beetle, which creates natural markings as it moves through the tree.
Like everything we make, this bowl is turned by hand in our New England workshop. It’s shaped slowly on the lathe, sanded smooth, and finished with a food-safe oil that brings out the grain and protects the surface. You won’t find two exactly alike.

Hand wash with mild soap and towel dry.
Apply mineral oil once a month to maintain the natural beauty of the wood.
Our mineral oil has a beeswax base that adds beauty and protection from everyday wear and tear. Beeswax conditioners help prevent wood from drying out as well as from absorbing too much moisture.
Prolonged exposure to water can cause damage; please do not submerge in water or place in the dishwasher.
Common mistakes include letting old fruit and vegetables rot at the bottom of a bowl (this may stain) or putting wood in the oven.
The dinner party staple. Our 15-inch bowl can serve a crowd—and then some.
