Bambu are well known for their innovative design, and 2010 found them using their lacquering skills on basic coconut shells - turning them into stylish food safe bowls. The beauty of this range is that each bowl is unique - and the variance in shape means that they compliment the uniformity of our bamboo lacquerware bowls perfectly.
Each bowl is made from half a coconut shell. The coconut flesh is removed and the bowls are then cleaned and polished. The inside is finished with a durable food safe PU lacquer which means the bowls are suitable for hot and cold food.
New for 2011: The coconut bowls now match our bambu lacquered bowls meaning you can mix and match across the ranges. Also the bowls now have a scratch resistant coating on the outside.
Although not dishwasher safe, they wash easily in warm soapy water.
This Avocado bowl has a sophisticated green lacquer on the outside.
Approx size 14cm diameter x 6cm high.
Please note due to the nature of the product each bowl will be a slightly different size.
FAIR TRADE – bambu is committed to the fair treatment of workers, promoting healthy communities and preserving the environment. The bowls are made by families in rural villages in Vietnam to help supplement farming income and use centuries-old craft skills unique to Vietnam.
SUSTAINABLE – The coconut palm is grown throughout the tropics for decoration as well as for its many culinary and non- culinary uses. Virtually every part of the coconut palm has some application, including the coconut shell, a waste by-product.
