Molten Glass on Rare Parasite Wood

Product Overview

Molten glass is poured directly onto a wooden base and left to find its own shape as it cools, so no two bowls set the same way twice.

A decorative glass bowl set on a base of rare parasite wood (Kayu Akasia), a hardwood known for its grain and warm, varied tones. The combination of organic glass and natural wood makes each piece a genuinely one-of-a-kind object — the wood grain differs from piece to piece, and the glass carries its own subtle variations in form. Set where light can catch the glass, the poured surface shifts colour as you move past it.

Dimensions

Bowl: 9 × 11 cm. Wooden base: 14 × 5 cm. Total height on stand: 11 cm. Weight: approx. 400 g.

Auro & Co Moment

Parasite wood (acacia wood grown on other host trees) is prized in Indonesian craft for its density and the richness of its grain. No two pieces of parasite wood look the same, which is why this bowl is a genuinely individual object rather than a uniform product.

FAQ

Will mine look like the photo? No two are the same — the glass and wood grain vary on every piece, so yours will differ from the image.

Is it food-safe? It's intended as a decorative bowl rather than for food.
