These stunning turned bowls follow time-honored hand-carving methods that utilize a potter's wheel. The exceptional work and lacquer finishing create a masterful set of six bowls that nest perfectly together. The Japanese zelkova wood is hand-selected by master artisans, and these bowls are a beautiful example of woodturning and lacquer polishing. In ancient times, this nesting bowl style was left unfinished and used by Zen Buddhist monks. However, adding the glossy wiped lacquer finish ensures this set will be a magnificent addition to any modern tableware collection. The uses for these bowls are limitless, and they store easily due to the charming way they stack together.

Oryoki Bowl (Nesting Set)
Oryoki bowls are a nested set of tableware traditionally used by monks and practitioners of Zen Buddhism. They use these bowls in a formal and meditative style of eating that pays great attention to detail in order to cultivate gratitude, mindfulness, and a better understanding of self. Oryoki sets of three to six bowls are commonly made of wood and are often lacquered.Yamanaka Lacquerware
Yamanaka lacquerware dates back to 1580 when highly skilled kimono-koji (wood-turning) artisans settled in the village of Masago - today’s Ishikawa Prefecture of Japan. World-famous for their intricately carved wooden pieces, Yamanaka artisans are renowned for the rich lacquer that they use to painstakingly seal and decorate their pieces. Chestnut, cherry, and other traditional woods feature at the heart of these stunning wood pieces.We offer a flat rate of USD $25 for shipping to the U.S., and Free Shipping on orders over USD $199.
