Wooden Animal Bowl / Hand Carved Safari Snack and Nut Dish

Bring a little safari to your table with this handmade wooden animal bowl. A carved animal leans over the rim as if it is helping itself to a snack, which makes every bowl a conversation starter. Choose a giraffe, a zebra, or an elephant, each shaped by hand and finished with fine details.

The giraffe bowl is deep and round, with giraffe spots on the outside and a bold wave pattern on the inside, while a tall giraffe bends its long neck over the edge. The smaller snack bowls come in soft cream, tan, and pink-red, with a striped zebra, a gray elephant, or a patterned giraffe resting on the rim.

Use the bowl for nuts, candy, dried fruit, and other dry snacks, or as a catch-all dish for keys, rings, and small items on a desk, dresser, or entry table. It also works as a decorative piece on a shelf or coffee table. Each bowl is carved from softwood and painted by hand, so color, pattern, and animal details vary slightly from piece to piece.
