In the last few years, bamboo has innovatively been used in all kinds of make – from medicines, fabrics, and door covering, and now finally, to tableware. There has always been an aura of sophistication and an air of style in wood based tableware. Wood selection has been a great matter of significance. And thus, the trend of using coiled bamboo in the making of stylish bamboo plates, salad bowls and other kitchen accessories has evolved as a true Vietnamese art. Wondering what all the deal is about? Here are 5 reasons why we love it:

     1.     It Is Low Maintenance Wood

The true definition of high quality wood tableware lies in its density. Typically, hardwood such as maple, walnut and cherry are a popular choice. They’re dense, and hence successfully keep the water and moisture out which is essential for bacteria growth that could become a health hazard. Yet, one cannot deny the regular maintenance required with beeswax, mineral oil etc to ensure it does not warm or crack. With bamboo tableware, you need not worry. This wood is dense, with the unique ability to not warp, making it maintenance free tableware.

2.     Superior Heath Sanitation

Even some of the hardest wood will wear off with the use of knives and forks that cause jarring into the surface. Bamboo is dense enough to resist this scarring and blocking out the penetration of water. It has also been granted safe by the FDA.

3.     They Are Aesthetically Pleasing

With naturally light texture and fine grain, most bamboo based tableware are aesthetically appealing, becoming the center of attention for various designer kitchens. They’re elegant looking, stylish, and more importantly, hand-woven. The greatest appeal in this Vietnamese crafted tableware is in the detail.

4.     The “Green” Choice

With more focus on a greener and sustainable environment, more and more people are focusing on reducing their carbon footprints. One way to go about this is bamboo tableware. Unlike your plastic alternative, these are biodegradable. This means that they leave no harmful remnants in the atmosphere.

5.     They Make Great Gifts

If you’re confused about gifting a close friend or colleague, bamboo tableware makes a great option! They’re aesthetically appealing, artistically significant and inexpensive!
