This particular handmade Redwood Burl Bowl's Approximate Measurements are: 10.75" Across the Top Interior Depth is about 3.75" at Deepest Part
Our wood bowls are handmade here at our wood shop in Northern California out of high quality redwood burl and are hard to find anywhere else. The finish applied is a food safe Linseed oil which helps enhance the grain / allows the colors to really pop.
Then finished off with 3 separate waxes to seal the oil in the cells of the wood so the oil/bowl does not dry out over time. No dyes or stains have been used.
These make great "Salad Bowls" and are food safe. But a lot of people just enjoy them as home decor and a fun conversational piece. Bowls should NEVER be put in the dishwasher, microwave, nor washed like typical bowls. Just wipe them out with a wet rag to keep their color, finish, etc.
What is redwood burl? It's actually a somewhat abnormal growth off of a redwood tree kind of like a wart or mole on a person. Removing it does not hurt the tree, but the grain that comes from it is amazing. Since it's not a tree itself that also makes it a much more rare type of wood/grain than redwood from a tree itself.
