Pasacho Negro Wood Bowl

Sale price$275.00

These big and beautiful bowls are crafted to last a lifetime. Coveted by chefs, celebrities, influencers, and more, anything you put in this bowl has the wow factor.

Our single-piece hand-carved bowls are made by local artists high in the Peruvian rainforest. To protect their managed forests, wood harvested from their community can only be produced within their region, limiting commercial abuse of their natural resources and creating industry for the native people in this remote region. Your purchase helps preserve these forests and the communities that live there for generations.

About the wood:

Pasacho Negro (Schizolobium parahybum) is a light hardwood weighing in at 27 pounds per cubic foot. It is a mildy-streaked wood that is populated with an abundance of small dark lines (open pores). 

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. Like all products originating from Mother Nature, every bowl is perfectly imperfect. You will likely see chisel marks from the artisans’ hand tools, find your bowl slightly irregular in shape or around the rim, and see subtle fills in natural veins. These are reminders of the craftsmanship in your finished product.

Medium: Approximately 17-Inches across the top and approximately 6-Inches deep

Extra Large:  Approximately 24 inches across the top and approximately 8 inches deep.

Maintain with food-safe oil, never soak in water 

Made in Peru

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 through a long journey). 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. Should the wood on your bowl rise (becomes rough), we recommend lightly sanding the bowl with fine steel wool or very fine sandpaper until smooth. Condition as above. 

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.
