The Story Behind the Product

Mango wood is indigenous to Northern Thailand. It is here, in the Golden Triangle, where Mr. Suwichack Ampanan and a small group of fellow artisans have been perfecting the craft of working with mango wood. Mr. Ampanan first learned the trade of woodworking about 15 years ago from his father. He now oversees a group of five artisans, but is actively involved in most every piece that leaves the workshop. By employing other local artisans, Mr. Ampanan has allowed them to enjoy a better standard of living than is offered by farming. All mango wood products from Mr. Ampanan's workshop are environmentally responsible. They only use mango trees that can no longer bear fruit. He and his staff hope you enjoy their products as much as they enjoy creating them.

"It is difficult to imagine how I managed without this bowl. I have found multiple uses for it (fruit bowl, salad bowl, etc.) and it is very simple to clean. I love the shape of this bowl as well as the interesting way it is scalloped and when not in use, I can place it anywhere and expect to receive lots of compliments on it.
