~ About the Maple Serving Bowl ~ This bowl of yellow maple, with a footing of exotic cocobolo wood, provides an appealing and functional accent in any kitchen - use it as serving bowl or a centerpiece bowl!
The wood is reclaimed from the bottom of river beds in Central America, and does not promote the use of deforestation. Many decades ago, trees taken from the forests were floated down rivers to lumber mills. Today, the river bottoms are littered with logs that sank, their beauty and strength still preserved underwater. Once the logs are removed from the river bottom, they are dried, milled, and shipped to the USA, where wood artisans use modern technology to turn and construct functional wood forms.
The bowl has a high gloss finish on the exterior and a simple food-safe mineral oil finish on the interior. It is not recommended to soak the wood in water or to place the wood in a dishwasher, microwave or direct sunlight. Clean with a wet cloth or non-abrasive pad. An occasional coat of mineral oil on the interior may be used. Mineral oil is a non-toxic, inert oil and will not build up. It is recommended to prevent absorption of food odors and ease cleaning, as well as maintain the integrity of the wood.
