Full details

FAQs

Is the glass bowl removable from the wood stand?

No, the glass is hand-blown and shaped directly onto the wood, creating a permanent fusion. The bowl and stand are designed as a single integrated piece.

What is the best way to clean the wood base?

Wipe the wood base with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using harsh detergents. For maintenance, a light application of food-safe mineral oil can be used periodically.

Can I put hot liquids in the glass bowl?

It is not recommended to put very hot liquids in the glass bowl, as extreme temperature changes can potentially damage handmade glass. Lukewarm liquids are generally acceptable.

How durable is the glass?

The glass is handmade from recycled materials and, while beautiful, should be handled with care. It is susceptible to breakage if dropped or subjected to sharp impacts. Minor imperfections are part of its handmade charm.

Will the color of the glass vary?

Yes, due to the handmade nature and recycled materials, the blue-green hue may vary slightly in intensity and distribution from piece to piece.

What type of wood is used for the stand?

The stand is made from authentic Balinese Gamal wood, which is known for its natural, often gnarled root formations.

Troubleshooting

Bowl appears unstable on the stand

Ensure the bowl is settled correctly onto the wood root. If the wood base is uneven, try placing a small, folded cloth or felt pad underneath the base to level it on your surface.

Glass has minor scratches or imperfections

This is normal for handmade recycled glass. Minor imperfections are part of the product's unique character and do not affect its functionality.

Wood appears dry or faded

Lightly wipe the wood with a damp cloth. For deeper conditioning, apply a small amount of food-safe mineral oil with a soft cloth and buff gently.

Residue left after use

For sticky residue, use a soft sponge with mild soap and lukewarm water. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately. For stubborn stains, a baking soda paste might be effective, followed by gentle rinsing.
