This molten glass on wood bowl is a small decorative dish made from hand-blown recycled glass fused over a piece of reclaimed Balinese gamal wood, giving you a one of a kind organic centrepiece for your home.
Each bowl is handcrafted in Bali in the traditional way. Molten recycled glass is hand-blown and, while still hot, gently relaxed over a section of reclaimed gamal root, so the glass hardens to the natural contours of the timber for a perfect, seamless fit. Because every piece of wood and every pour of glass is different, no two bowls are ever exactly alike. It is a beautifully sustainable, biophilic object that brings the earthy and the refined together.

Good to know
Is each bowl unique? Yes. Every bowl is shaped by hand over a different piece of wood, so each one is genuinely one of a kind and will vary in colour, form and grain.
Is it made from recycled glass? Yes. The glass is recycled and hand-blown, then fused over reclaimed Balinese gamal wood, so it is a sustainable, eco-friendly choice.
How do I clean it? Wipe the glass with a soft, damp cloth and dry it gently. Avoid soaking or scrubbing the wood, and handle with care as the piece is fragile.

- Hand-blown Shaped by skilled makers, never mass-produced.
- One of a kind Made to order, so the piece you receive is unique.
Materials
Recycled glass, including rescued beer bottles, hand-blown and fused onto reclaimed Balinese gamal wood. Every piece is made to order, so small variations in colour, shape and grain are natural and part of its character.
Care
Hand wash only with warm water and a soft cloth, then dry straight away. Do not put any piece in the dishwasher, microwave or oven. Avoid soaking the wood or leaving it in standing water, and keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight to protect the colour. A little food-safe oil now and then keeps the wood looking its best.
Dimensions
Because every piece is hand-blown and made to order, exact measurements vary slightly from one to the next. Approximate sizes are shown in the product images where available. If you need precise dimensions before buying, please get in touch and we will help.
