Higuera Wood Bowl

Sorry, we are currently sold out of Higuera bowls and we have a long waitlist of very patient customers.  However, we have bowls in production and plan to work through our waitlist this Fall/Holiday season.  If you are already on the waiting list we have your information and we promise to let you know about bowl ordering as soon as we can.  We apologize for the lengthy delay which is frustrating (we know), but will be worth the wait.  Thank you!

These are the mother of all bowls.  Big, beautiful, and something to last you a lifetime.  Coveted by chefs, celebrities, influencers, and more, anything you put in this bowl has the wow factor.  

The bowls are carved by hand from Higuerilla Negra wood that has been harvested from sustainably managed rain forests in Peru.  These large pieces are then handed off to groups of indigenous artisans living in the Amazon forest region.  They carefully carve the single piece of  wood to our specifications.  Procuring these gorgeous wooden bowls is no easy task as these artisans live in very remote areas, many hours from towns and modern conveniences.  Well worth the wait and the dedication we are committed to support these artisan groups and preserving the Amazon rain forest.

Variegations in color and markings are the unique history of the tree used. Light or dark, uneven patterns, dark spots, or streaks are not unusual. You may also see chisel marks from the artisans’ hand tools and find your bowl is slightly irregular in shape or around the rim. These are reminders of the craftsmanship in your finished product.

Albeit big these bowls are very easy to care for. Prior to using clean the bowl with a soapy (no detergent) sponge. Never soak your bowl in water. Rinse with a wet clean sponge and remove any soap on the bowl. Dry with a soft cloth. Condition the bowl before use (remember it has been on a ship for many weeks). Rub beeswax or food-safe wood conditioner inside and outside your bowl. Do not use too much and make sure to rub off any excess. The bowl should have a beautiful luster without feeling sticky.

After every use, clean with a sponge and towel try. Condition as needed. 

Please note:  Due to the dimensional weight, there is a flat $34 shipping charge for these bowls to ensure they make it to your home safely.
