{"product_id":"antique-wabi-sabi-turtle-platter","title":"Vintage Wabi Sabi Turtle Platter","description":"\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003eSome pieces win you over not with ornament, but with form and touch. Carved from a single block of solid hardwood, this vintage platter takes on a distinctive “turtle” or star-like silhouette, its broad, shallow basin anchored by four angular, protruding handles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003eUnlike standard dough bowls, this geometric shape suggests a more particular role—perhaps ceremonial, perhaps reserved for special foods in a village kitchen. Decades of use have worn the wood to a soft glow, shifting from honey-brown to deep espresso in areas where hands have naturally rested. On the interior, you can still see and feel the hand-hewn tool marks, a quiet record of the maker’s work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003eIn a modern home, it becomes an effortless wabi-sabi statement. Use it as a fruit bowl where air can easily circulate around produce, or as a low landscape for moss, stones, or a cluster of candles. Its low profile and generous size make it ideal for the center of a dining table, coffee table, or kitchen island, adding warmth and sculptural presence without visual heaviness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eEra:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eVintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSize:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e19.25\"(L) x 14.25\"(D) x 2.5\"(H)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSolid vintage hardwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eColor:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNatural \/ waxed (food safe for dry goods)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eShape:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e“Turtle” \/ geometric handles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eCare:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWipe gently with a dry cloth.
