Salad Hands - India

$36.00

The Salad Hands are a set of wooden salad servers handcrafted in India, carved into the shape of the hamsa hand with an eye motif and geometric patterning etched across the surface. The wood is warm and the carving is fine enough that you notice it every time you pick them up.

Most salad servers go in a drawer. These stay out. The hamsa shape is the kind of thing that makes someone ask where you got them, and the carved detail is the reason you actually remember.

Made by women artisans in India who bring the same precision to woodcarving that the craft demands. The etching on each pair is done by hand, and that is what gives the patterning its depth.

A set of carved wooden salad servers handcrafted by women artisans in India, designed for the person who wants their table to feel considered without being fussy.

Materials: Wood
Origin: India
