SINGLE BEAD PREMIER BOWL IN FIGURED ASH 16x6.25"
-
The #1 concern I get when someone is interested in a wooden bowl is how do I care for it. Unlike most food service bowl material options, wood takes some care in order for it to last generations. But... what if I could offer a bowl that is waterproof, requires zero maintenance, and lets the true natural beauty of wood shine through? You'd probably say it sounds too good to be true.
It's not! This new line of bowls are finished with a unique product from Japan that dried dead flat, bonds with the wood fibers basically becoming a dead flat finish that is for all purposes glass. It's extremely durable and completely waterproof. Simply wash out the bowl after use and it's ready to go for the next time (just don't use the dishwasher unless that's your pet name for your husband or wife ... just jokes people 😉)With this line, I carefully remove just a little of the softer summer growth rings of wood on the outside of the bowl to further emphasize the amazing texture and grain patterns of the wood, providing a very unique look and feel in your hands.Interested in a forever bowl that requires no maintenance, that is literally the best of the best of the best? The Premier line of bowls is the place you want to be :) -

Your Alexander Designs piece arrives finished with a food safe oil and wax combination. Proper cleansing and seasoning will maintain its natural anti-bacterial properties. To prevent splitting or cracking, never soak your piece in water, put it in the dishwasher, refrigerator, or microwave.
After use, hand wash with soap and water, rinse, and hand dry. After it has been allowed to completely dry, after repeated use it may seem a little dull or dried out from washing. If so, it could use a bit of seasoning. The following are great options: Our favorite is our made in-house Wood Wax. Simply rub a small amount of Wood Wax onto the piece with a small lint free cloth (In our home we leave a small piece of cotton cloth in the Wood Wax tin, as to never waste any product), let the wood wax absorb into the piece for 20-30 minutes, then buff off the excess with a lint free cloth. Our second choice would be a heat-treated walnut oil such as Mahoney’s Walnut Oil (it can be found at several retailers online. Lastly, (our least favorite option) you can use Mineral Oil as it’s food safe, however it does evaporate and will require more frequent applications. Always avoid using any vegetable-based oils as they will turn rancid over time.
Following these care instructions will allow your piece to be enjoyed for generations. If you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email, or call, we are here to help you.
