This vintage MCM set of 7 solid, genuine teak wood bowls were beautifully hand crafted in Thailand. They boast wavy / scalloped top edges, exuding an ultra mid-century modern Danish style and shape. The bowls are a great medium size and were made of hard and heavy, quality teak with classic teak streaking grain detailing. They are perfect for salad, fruit, daily use, or for serving with at parties! They could also be used for outdoor dining thanks to teak's unique properties. Teak is unique to other woods and not only is it a strong, durable hardwood, it produces its own oil and has a high wax content, making it the ideal material for outdoor use as the teak oil makes it waterproof and undesirable to wood-eating insects.
Teak wood pieces are extra special due to how slowly this particular tree grows. They can only be harvested at a minimum age of 20 years! The demand of high market and a declining number of this tree, makes the price of wood always increase every year and the amount of pieces made with teak decrease. Always a pleasure to find genuine teak!
The original gold foil sticker found on the underside of one of the bowls reads "Winsome Wood, Genuine Teak, Thailand".
