This is a pearwood bowl, but no ordinary pear, this is dark in colour and very dense and close-grained.
there are two colours in this wood and a marvellous line where they cross, this can be seen in the pictures.
I imagine this could be used as serving dish, salad bowl

18cm wide and 12cm tall.

Care instructions:
Step 1: The Wash
Wash by hand your wooden product with water (soap is fine too)

Step 2: The Oil (once in 2 months)
The next morning, use your hands to apply a generous layer of vegetable oil to the sides, top, bottom, and any groove, grip, or handle. You don’t need puddles of oil on your board, just enough to cover the wood with an even coat

Step 3: Let it rest
Once you’ve covered the whole piece of wood with oil, you’ve created a barrier to help the wood retain moisture. You know what to do. On its side. Broad faces out. Let it sit overnight.
