Tri-Section Olive Wood Serving Platter with Batik Bone Accent
Each piece of olive wood is hand-carved using simple, traditional tools, leaving subtle, distinctive marks that reflect the artisan's touch. The bone accent is created using the batik process, an age-old African art form, where wax is applied to the white bone before it is dipped into a deep brown-black dye. This technique reveals intricate patterns inspired by traditional African mud cloth designs. Why you'll love it: These hand-carved olive wood bowls were made by talented African artisans who utilize materials fully by converting scraps into salable products, excelling at incorporating recycled, reclaimed, and highly renewable materials in product design. Materials: Wild Olive Wood Dimensions: Approximately 11" x 6.5" (due to the handmade nature, sizes can vary up to an inch).
