Every piece goes through an extremely thorough finishing process. Each bowl or vessel receives numerous passes of various abrasives, oils and waxes including 6 grits of sandpaper, a gentle water bath to bring out any remaining loose wood fibers, 0000 steel wool, two different buffing pads that work in the finishing oils, and finally a coat of wax is delivered on a piece of leather at an extremely high speed to accentuate the wood's natural glow.
To properly care for this item if used in the kitchen: Always rinse off any food and then gently wash the bowl or board by hand with warm-to-hot water and mild dish soap. Avoid abrasive cleaning products. Dry immediately. To ensure that any water absorbed by the wood evaporates, allow the piece to air-dry completely before putting it away.
The beauty of handmade lives in the imperfections.
