This end‑grain bowl is turned from reclaimed spalted oak, showcasing the patina and character of rescued wood. Measuring five inches across and two and a half inches tall, it is finished with a food‑safe blend of walnut oil, beeswax, and carnauba wax that enriches the grain and protects the surface. A sustainable, handcrafted piece, it celebrates fine woodworking and the artistry of natural materials. Made by Gentry Crafted.
Oak is one of the most enduring hardwoods, valued for its strength, coarse grain, and warm coloration. When spalting occurs, natural fungi create dramatic dark lines and streaks within the wood, producing striking contrasts and unique patterns. In this bowl, those markings flow across the surface, blending with the oak’s natural tones to create a piece that is both functional and visually captivating. Spalted oak embodies the balance between durability and organic imperfection, making this vessel a testament to both nature’s unpredictability and the craft of turning rescued wood into lasting art.
