Spalted and ambrosia maple carry markings you can spot at a glance. Spalted wood runs with dark tracings across pale ground, while ambrosia brings smoky gray streaks left by the beetle. Put side by side, the two woods are never the same. Handles are carved into the bowl itself, easy to grip and strong enough for passing around the table.
Smaller bowls end up in daily use — fruit in the kitchen, bread at dinner, or a quick side dish. Larger ones step forward when the table is full: salads for a group, roasted vegetables, or a spread meant for sharing. The patterns shift bowl to bowl, so every piece feels singular, more like a fingerprint than a template.
Each harvest bowl starts in Gill, Massachusetts, turned by hand from salvaged maple logs. Trees that might have been discarded are reclaimed and shaped instead. The interior is sanded smooth, the edge and handles left with the marks of the wood itself. A food-safe oil seals the surface. Built sturdy enough for today, made to last for years.
