Elegant wooden bowls from recycled oak

By

Designers Van Eijk and Van der Lubbe of Usuals have created 39 wooden bowls from five reclaimed oak poles they found at a Dutch farmhouse.

The wooden bowls have had carefully measured volumes removed from the body of each oak log, with the smooth cut-outs successfully contrasting the rustic ‘lived-in’ characteristics of the wood. They are unique and hand made, with cracks and flaws in each one.

  2. Hmm. My self-mocking pedant HTML tags didn’t carry through.

  3. Yes, I tried to keep the website’s text intact, and that’s what they wrote. Will amend!
