In carefully covering these bowls in copper leaf, we add a unique metallic dimension to something that was grown by mother nature, and the effect is just stunning. We take pieces of Teak and handshape them to reveal the bowl hiding within, leaving the edge in its natural form. Then, with careful preparation, we cover the outside only, or both the inside and outside with leafs made from pure copper. We have versions where the leafing is left whole and pristine, and versions where we distress the coating -adding even more character to the piece. Useful, functional and beautifully decorative, a collection of these bowls is a welcome addition to your kitchen or dining room.

These bowls have so much character; each one is completely individual because of the natural edge and also because of the hand rubbed distressing of the finish. Each bowl is shaped by hand from a rough chunk of Teak until its beautiful natural form is exposed, and the shape of the edge is left untouched so each one is different from the others. Smoothed down and smoothed again before any finishing is applied, these bowls are a joy to touch, hold and use. The bowls are finished with a strong food-safe lacquer making them easy to use in the kitchen, and easy to clean. The real gold leaf is applied very carefully before being artistically aged to give the fantastic look you see in the photos here. This model has the gold leaf applied to both the inside and outside surfaces.

This wonderfully natty bowl is hand carved from a solid piece of Teak root into the shape of a leaf. The interesting grain character of the root material means no two of these bowls are exactly alike, and that character is rich and full of features. The natural features are greatly enhanced by the leaf shape and stalk handle, and the stylized leaf veins carved into the interior of the bowl. The WoW factor is trebled by the addition of genuine gold leaf on the interior of the bowl. The gold leaf is sealed in with a hard-wearing lacquer to protect the gold, and results in a usable and easy to clean bowl for small salads, fruits and snacks.

Nothing indicates opulence like gold, and here we have a natural Teak bowl covered with genuine gold leaf. The bowl itself is shaped by hand from a raw piece of Teak until the form becomes clear, and the natural edge is left untouched so the form is left exactly as nature intended. This means that no two pieces of this bowl are exactly alike. A super-smooth surface is needed for the application of the gold leaf because it mirrors exactly the surface it is applied to, and the surfaces of these bowls are super-smooth. The inside of the bowl and the lip is left in the natural Teak color, providing an excellent contrast to the gold exterior. A collection of these bowls in your home shows taste and style.

These great little bowls are hand carved from one piece of Teak. They are lovingly shaped and smoothed and sanded and finished with great care. The inside is finished with food grade mineral oil which protects the woods surface and preserves the natural color of the Teak. The outside is painted a solid contrasting white which is very bold and smooth, and the woods natural edge is retained to form the lip of the bowl. A bowl like this is great for serving snacks or small salads or any other nibbles. Keep a few of them handy around the home.
