Description

Serve breakfast, fruit and salads in a bowl that is not plastic. Each coconut shell bowl is carved and hand-finished, so its grain and warm tone look a little different on every table. Stack them on a shelf and they take up less room than the plates they replace.

Natural handmade coconut shell bowl, a plastic-free alternative to everyday dishware

Solves
  • reliance on plastic bowls
  • bland or generic tableware
  • need for eco-friendly serveware

Swap plastic for a natural handmade coconut shell bowl

Your breakfast and fruit have been served in plastic long enough. Switch to a handmade coconut shell bowl with its own grain, and every morning feels a little more considered.

Natural grain, handmade in every bowl

Handmade coconut shell

The shell is the whole bowl, not a coating over plastic or clay. You see dark brown polish with pale golden streaks running through the grain, and the lip is smooth enough to drink from. It is a plain, honest alternative to the bowls already in your cupboard.

Deep, stackable shape

The rounded interior holds a full bowl of oats, yogurt or fruit without spilling over the edge. The walls are shaped to nest, so a set stacks neatly on a shelf and takes up less room than plates of the same count. Browse more to match the look.

Stack of three coconut shell bowls on white fabric showing colour variation

Every bowl differs

Colour and wall thickness vary from piece to piece, which is the point of a natural material. A stack of three gives you three slightly different bowls that still belong together on the table.

Simple care for natural shell

  • Hand wash

    Use mild soap and warm water, then rinse.

  • Skip long soaks

    Prolonged soaking dulls the surface and can weaken the shell.

  • Keep it out of the dishwasher

    Heat and harsh detergent dry out the finish.

  • Dry fully

    Air dry before you stack the bowls.

Questions and answers

Is a coconut shell bowl safe for food and wet or hot items?
w
Wanelo · seller

It is made for serving food. Cereal, yogurt, fruit, salads and dried snacks all work well, and wet foods are fine as long as you dry the bowl after washing. Keep it away from very hot liquids and the microwave, since heat is what the natural shell handles worst.

Can I put a coconut shell bowl in the dishwasher?
w
Wanelo · seller

No. Hand wash with mild soap and warm water, then let it air dry fully before stacking. The dishwasher heat and harsh detergent dry out the shell and change the finish.

Does a coconut shell bowl crack or warp over time?
w
Wanelo · seller

Everyday use and regular hand washing keep the shell in good shape. The habits that cause trouble are long soaking and heat, so keep the routine simple and the bowl will last longer than the plastic it replaces.

Why is it priced higher than plastic bowls?
w
Wanelo · seller

Each piece is a natural shell that is carved and hand-finished, which costs more than moulded plastic. Plastic bowls get swapped out as they dull and crack. One shell bowl used every morning replaces a run of cheap bowls that end up in the bin.

Are the bowls exactly the same, or does each one vary?
w
Wanelo · seller

Each bowl varies. Grain, colour and wall thickness differ from piece to piece, with dark brown polish and pale golden streaks across a set. Measurements are taken by hand, so the 12-14 cm diameter and about 5-5.5 cm height are close but not exact.
