Lipper International Acacia Wave Serving Bowl

No, this bowl is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the natural acacia wood and prevent warping or cracking, you should hand wash it with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately.

Yes, to keep the acacia wood looking its best, you should occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil. This helps nourish the wood, prevents it from drying out, and maintains its rich, warm color.

With a capacity of over 162 fluid ounces, this is a substantial serving piece. It is large enough to hold a family-sized salad for 8-10 people or a significant amount of fruit for a centerpiece.

While the bowl is durable, it is primarily designed for serving salads, fruits, or dry snacks. Avoid using it for extremely hot, liquid-heavy dishes, as prolonged exposure to heat and moisture can damage the wood finish over time.

The wavy design is aesthetic rather than deep or intricate, so it does not create hard-to-reach crevices. A standard sponge or soft cloth will easily reach all surfaces of the bowl during cleaning.
