This lovely natural edge Fruitless Mulberry bowl was made from a tree taken down in Walnut Creek California because the owner got tired of raking leaves in the Fall. It can be used for serving salads, crackers, chips, and other such items. The bowl is finished with a clear, food safe finish which also enhances and shows off the beautiful golden yellow color of the wood. Clean the bowl after each use with warm water and mild detergent. Wipe dry immediately.
