Wooden Bowl Mahogany Alpha

The WOODEN BOWL MAHOGANY ALPHA is a solid wood container crafted from natural Nangka wood, measuring 17.00 cm in width, 17.00 cm in depth, and standing at a height of 13.00 cm. This piece occupies a volume of 0.0030 cubic meters and has a total weight of 1.00 kg, providing a heavy, stable base on flat surfaces. The bowl is shaped from a single block of timber, maintaining the organic grain patterns and color variations inherent to the Nangka tree species.

The exterior surface is smoothly sanded down to eliminate rough edges while preserving the natural tactile qualities of the wood. The walls of the bowl maintain a consistent thickness from the rim down to the base, ensuring structural integrity and balanced weight distribution. Inside, the cavity follows a rounded parabolic curve, creating a deep interior well suitable for holding various household items, dry foodstuffs, or decorative objects.

The choice of Nangka wood dictates the physical properties of the bowl, including its natural resistance to everyday wear and its dense cellular structure. The wood grain displays a warm, golden-brown hue that deepens organically over time through exposure to ambient light and air. No synthetic laminates or veneers are applied to the surface; the finish consists strictly of a food-safe natural oil sealant that penetrates the wood pores to protect against moisture absorption while keeping the matte texture intact.

With a diameter of 17.00 cm and a depth matching its width, the proportions form a semi-spherical profile. The flat circular base measures slightly narrower than the maximum width, creating a stable footprint that prevents tipping when items are placed inside or retrieved. The rim is cleanly cut and slightly rounded to the touch, avoiding sharp angles along the top edge.

Maintenance of the WOODEN BOWL MAHOGANY ALPHA requires manual cleaning with mild soap and tepid water, followed by immediate drying with a soft cloth to preserve the wood integrity. Submerging the bowl in water for extended periods or placing it inside a mechanical dishwasher will compromise the natural fibers and the applied oil seal. Occasional application of food-grade mineral oil or beeswax helps maintain the moisture balance of the Nangka wood, preventing surface cracking or excessive dryness in low-humidity environments.

The physical specifications—specifically the 1.00 kg weight and the dense 0.0030 m3 displacement—ensure that the bowl remains stationary during use on dining tables, kitchen counters, or display surfaces. The tactile feedback of the raw timber grain provides a direct connection to the natural material source. Every individual unit displays unique variations in stripe patterns, knot placements, and tonal shifts due to the biological growth rings of the harvested timber. The construction avoids metal fasteners, glues, or synthetic fillers, relying entirely on subtractive woodworking techniques applied to solid Nangka timber blocks.
