Hand Carved Safari Bowl
Six majestic African animals encircle the rim of this dramatic serving piece, meticulously hand-carved out of native jacaranda wood by Akamba tribesmen in Mombasa, Kenya, each a master at his craft. Once carved, the wood is sanded to a smooth finish and hand-painted with natural colored dyes. A clear wax hand-finish gives shine and character to each piece. Recommended for use with dry snacks only, such as whole fruits or nuts. No two are exactly alike. Some bowls may not have a patterned rim. Approx 12 in. x 7 in. x 4 in.
