Handcrafted Decorative & Functional Wood Bowls ~ by VanEss Expressions


Wood bowls can be a functional and decorative accent to any home, and make wonderful gifts, Each of our wood bowls is individually hand-turned - making each unique, one-of-a-kind and is personally handcrafted by VanEss Expressions in our Minneapolis Minnesota, USA workshop.

Our standard woods are Ash, Maple, Oak, Walnut and Cherry; (specialty woods when available). We turn our wood bowls from solid stock lumber or glued up board lumber. Our multi-wood bowls are extremely popular.

Since each wood bowl is unique, when a bowl is sold - it's gone. Although we try to replace sold items with similar pieces - we really don't want to exactly duplicate any bowl- that's what makes each unique. To give you an idea of the different shapes & design possibilities, we have compiled some pictures of different wood bowls that we have made in the past.
