Bolivian Rosewood Hand carved Fruit Pod Shaped Bowl
COUNTRY SOURCED: Bolivia
This extraordinary piece is made from reclaimed Bolivian Rosewood, hand-carved and hand-polished to a satin finish. Its natural design draws inspiration from the shape of fruit pods of giant Motacú palms (Attalea princeps) native to eastern Bolivia. Not intended to hold prepared foods or liquids. You can display it as a sculpture, centerpiece or use it to create natural fruit or dry flower displays. Imperfections such as cracks and blemishes are characteristic of the natural beauty of the wood and their Ki-design philosophy mandates we never attempt to eliminate them.
Dimensions: 16x7x3", with some variations as they are entirely hand-made. Available in larger sizes (24, 32, 40 and 48").
