Material:
Artisans carve our bowls from local Musave wood, a tree which regrows after it has been cut. The all-natural brown and black finishes are made using an innovative polish of soot from neighboring kitchens. The light color is simply the natural, unfinished Musave wood.
All-Natural Finishes: Natural Light, Medium Soot Finish, + Dark Soot Finish

Care: Dust with a dry cloth + Avoid getting wet
