Whether for serving food or simply as a trinket
display, these hand-carved bowls are great conversation pieces and
as handy as they are beautiful. Every bowl is different as they are
each carved by skilled artisans interpreting the wild grain
patterns and natural shapes of the root or stump they come from.
They are a wonderful addition to home and table. Each of our hand
carved root bowls is uniquely beautiful and stands alone as a
natural work of art. These fantastic pieces are carved from a
species of Chinese Fir called Shan Mu, which grows abundantly in
the mountains of central China. The stumps left by logging are
reclaimed prior to replanting and hand-carved by local artisans
into the shapes in this collection. They are beautiful and
practical items that bring their own unique organic charm into the
home. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind. Knotholes and minor cracks add
a unique charm. RootWorks raw materials come from stumps left by
logging operations, the removal of which allows for faster
reforestation. The stumps are removed by hardy teams along the
mountain slopes and transported to the remote carving villages.
After careful cleaning and grading each gnarled stump is then
transformed by skilled carvers into the gorgeous and unique
RootWorks products we proudly offer. Watching the carvers read each
organic chunk of the fragrant fir is a thing of wonder the rough
stump is turned and studied, inner and outer surfaces rough-hewn
and balanced, shaved and nibbled with sharp tools, until the final
form starts to emerge, each one different from the last. Each piece
is then carefully sanded, smoothed, and lacquered, revealing the
depth of grain, stunning color and variety of sculptural shapes
that makes rootWorks a winning collection.
