Driftwood finish softens oak into a weathered gray, like wood left to the tide. The grain still comes through, muted but not hidden. With the rim left natural, the edge rises and falls along the tree’s own line. No two bowls follow the same path.
The mix of rustic rim and smooth interior makes these bowls practical as much as decorative. Smaller sizes are easy for fruit or snacks. Larger ones open wide for salads, bread, or seasonal dishes when people gather. The pale gray pairs with anything — bright summer produce, winter grains, even left empty on a sideboard.
In Gill, Massachusetts, we turn each bowl by hand from salvaged oak. Trees cleared or storm-fallen are milled and shaped into form, then sealed with a food-safe oil. The edge is left rough where it grew, the inside finished for use. Work like this keeps local wood in circulation, turning it from waste into heirlooms built for the table.
Sizing Guide (Live Edge Driftwood Bowls)
Driftwood bowls bring the soft gray of weathered oak indoors — simple, rugged, and meant to be used.
– Sustainably Sourced and Upcycled
– Finish, color, spalting and size may vary
– 100% food safe
– Handcrafted in Massachusetts
Apply mineral oil once a month to maintain the natural beauty of the wood, except to products with our Driftwood, White Pearl, and Sea Glass finishes. These bowls are made with an acrylic food safe finish and should not be oiled.Â
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.Â
Common mistakes include letting old fruit and vegetables rot at the bottom of a bowl (this may stain) and putting a bowl/board in the oven.
