valwoo  Lacquer Bowl Black

"Valwoo are dishes used in Buddhist temples; they are divided into dishes for rice, soup, water and side-dishes, and are made in different sizes so that they stack neatly inside each other. Each monk own set of Valwoo, and learn to take good care of it in the spirit of offering thanks to Buddha at every meal. We have a set of seven dishes in the traditional spirit of Valwoo, in two different designs."
