How to care for your wooden bowl.
If you will be using your wood bowl for display, no special care is required.
Your bowl has a food grade finish.
It is best to use drier foods such as fruits, crackers, breads and nuts rather than wet food. A lettuce salad is fine, but we would avoid adding the salad dressing directly to the lettuce and serve the dressing on the side.
The poly-finish (shiny) is low maintenance. After use, rinse with warm water and a mild dish soap, then dry immediately with a soft towel.
The hard wax finish (matte), wipe off with a damp cloth. Do not get too wet. The bowl will
need to be re-waxed every few years.
Avoid putting hot popcorn directly into bowl, let cool a bit first.
Do not put a wood bowl in the dishwasher or submerge in water.
Bowls with a natural live edge bark finish are recommended for display only.
