mango wood salad bowl



The mango tree bears fruit for about 40 years, and is then cut down by farmers to make room for new seedlings.

Many times, local artisans use the wood of these felled trees to carve one-of-a-kind pieces.

Mango wood has a diverse range of color in its grains, revealed best by carving and cutting pieces by hand.

And, because mango is the fastest growing hard wood used for furniture production, it is often less costly than other options.

The sale of these goods supports the local economies they come from and the sustainable production of the mango fruit.
