About this item: A mystical green tone is swallowed by the eddying design of this handcrafted bowl. Lacquered surfaces reveal the luxury of natural Thai colors, beautifully orchestrated by Daeng Thanunchai. Subtle in its elegance, the piece offers a singular accent to any space. For decorative purposes only; display stand not included. To complete this piece, coiled bamboo basketry is carved into the desired shape on a lathe. A mixture of lacquer – obtained from the Gluta usitata tree – and ashes of burnt rice paddy husks is then applied to the object. Upon exposure to air the mixture dries to form a watertight seal that is polished before another coat is applied. This process is repeated until a rigid base is formed, and a final polishing is executed with sandpaper. Then several coats of pure lacquer are painted on the object, with drying periods in between each coat. The work is partially polished with sandpaper according to a predetermined pattern – generally concentric – and a few coats of different lacquer colors are applied to the surface, then the object is left to dry for a few days. The process remains identical for each ensuing color, alternating lacquering and polishing sessions until the design is achieved. The final coat is washed with water and polished with powdered fired clay, offering an irresistible sheen.For decorative use onlyDo not use abrasivesWipe with damp cloth
