Pair of Simple Vintage Hand Turned Wooden Bowls - Pear & Sycamore
The Story
This duo of wooden dishes showcases the beauty of natural materials and precise, manual craftsmanship. Each bowl has been hand-turned to reveal the unique, tactile qualities of Pear and Sycamore wood. With their clean lines and subtle retro aesthetic, they represent the Mid-Century Modern appreciation for organic textures and "honest" design. Both pieces are personally initialled and dated on the base, adding a wonderful touch of provenance to their story.
The Details
Materials: One bowl in Pear wood, one in Sycamore.
Markings: Initialled "JB" and dated (day/month) in ink on the bases.
Dimensions:
Pear Bowl: 13.5cm Diameter x 5cm High.
Sycamore Bowl: 14cm Diameter x 5cm High.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. Both bowls feature beautiful grain patterns and a warm, natural colour palette with no significant damage or wear.
Why They’re Special
Unlike mass-produced woodenware, these hand-turned dishes have a weight and balance that only comes from artisanal work. Pear wood is prized for its fine, even texture and warm reddish-brown hue, while Sycamore offers a paler, more subtle grain.
Styling Tips
The Perfect Nibbles Set: These are the ideal size for serving nuts, olives, or crisps during a drinks party. The natural wood provides a beautiful, warm contrast to modern ceramic plates.
Jewellery Organizers: Place them on a bedroom dresser or vanity. Use the slightly darker Pear bowl for gold jewellery and the paler Sycamore bowl for silver to create a coordinated, organized look.
Sustainable Shipping
100% plastic-free, recyclable, and biodegradable packaging.
U.K. Delivery: Sent via FREE Royal Mail Tracked 48 service.
