Overview

The FJ Bowl is the smallest of the teakwood bowl series that Finn Juhl designed in 1951. It features the characteristic blend of organic shapes and balance between wood, form and geometric measurements that made Juhl famous. Finn Juhl uses design to reveal the natural properties of the material: depending on what angle you look at it from, the bowl changes shape. The FJ Bowl is handmade of a single piece of teak wood and treated with clear teak oil, allowing the bowl to develop a beautiful patina as it ages.
