Teak Root Serving Bowl

$78

Nature, Reclaimed and Refined

Carved from the reclaimed root systems of mature teak trees, this serving bowl turns what’s left underground into something sculptural, tactile, and enduring. Indonesian artisans shape each piece by hand, embracing the natural irregularity that gives teak root its character.

Long prized for its resistance to cracking and warping, teak brings stability and warmth to a form that’s as organic as it is functional. Each bowl is inherently one-of-a-kind.

Materials

Made from solid teak root, a material celebrated for its natural durability and expressive grain. The warm, natural finish enhances the wood’s tonal variation without masking its irregularities. Because teak naturally releases small amounts of oil over time, the bowl may leave traces on porous surfaces—an authentic trait of genuine teak.

Design Notes

Each bowl is shaped by hand, preserving the asymmetry and movement of the original root structure. Its generous size makes it suited for fruit, bread, or table display.

Questions About The Teak Root Serving Bowl

How long until I receive my order?

The Teak Root Serving Bowl arrives approximately 1-2 weeks from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Teak Root Serving Bowl can be returned after receiving the order only if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Teak Root Serving Bowl ships within 1-3 days of order placement.

Judge us by our looks

Our packaging is safe, simple, and proudly no frills. We don't think it makes sense to pay for things you throw away immediately.

That's why the Teak Root Serving Bowl ships in the same protective packaging the manufacturer uses, covered in functional stickers and foreign stamps showing the journey it's been on.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.
