Description
This is a shallow decorative bowl in acacia, left in a natural wood colour so the grain does all the talking. Its outline is loose and organic rather than a neat circle, with a low, softly wavy rim around a broad, open centre. It measures 37cm long, 34.5cm wide and 2.5cm high, so it sits low and wide, closer to a shallow tray than a deep bowl. At 1.2KG it feels pleasingly solid in the hand.
Acacia is a natural material, so every piece is unique: the streaks, swirls and shifts of tone in the grain differ from bowl to bowl, and yours will be its own. It suits a coffee table, a sideboard, a hallway console or a dressing table, anywhere a warm note of wood would help a room. Use it to gather keys and sunglasses by the front door or to hold a few pieces of jewellery. You can also leave it empty as a sculptural shape that softens a run of hard surfaces. The earthy tone sits comfortably with linen, stone, rattan and pale painted walls, and it brings warmth to a cooler, more minimal scheme.
It is not for food use, so please treat it purely as decor rather than a serving dish or fruit bowl. It is not dishwasher-proof either, so keep it out of the dishwasher altogether. Acacia is a hardwood with a strong, characterful grain, and here that grain runs across the whole surface, from the shallow centre to the rounded outer edge. The colour is a natural wood tone, so the variation you notice is the wood itself. As a practical note, if you are buying several for a long table or a shelf, expect them to differ a little in grain and tone.
