Keith's Wood Log
Sorry about the pun, but this is where you will find an up to date log of the products offered. Rather than taking orders months in advance I am trying something new. What I am showing here is a detailed list of what is already available. This way you can make a list of what you like and order directly from me for a quick turn around drop shipment. Once sold, the items image will be taken off the site. If I find that I have several near identical items, I will note the number available and rest assured you will get what you ordered. Of course if you prefer to make an order in advance I will do everything possible to fill it.
Salad bowls and Utilitarian work
My normal utility work is made from hard wood species that are suitable for everyday use. Hard wearing but not so brittle that they crack, every effort is made to ensure a long lasting product that will be passed down for generations. All work of this kind is finished with a food safe finish and buffed with bees wax. A simple application of walnut oil or mineral oil will keep your bowl looking it's best. In my kitchen, bowls are washed with soap and water, then put in the dish rack to dry. I rarely oil them after the initial finishing process and after years of use they still look great. Keep wooden bowls out of direct sun, and never fill them with water to soak or let them float in water as this may crack any wooden ware. Though the refrigerator seems to be fine, do keep wooden ware out of the microwave and dishwasher.
Though most often associated with salad, these bowls are great for many things. Serving hot pasta, popcorn, breads or rice dishes are some of my favorites. The insulating properties of wood seems to keep food hot longer, while keeping fingers and hands from becoming too warm.
