art :: veggie bowls

Bowls made from vegetables? That doesn't sound too uncommon. But bowls molded from cured, paper thin vegetable slices - now that is a little different. Artist Margaret Dorfman created these interesting art pieces by molding what she calls vegetable parchment into free form bowls. The veggie parchment is paper thin vegetable slices that have been dried, cured,pressed and aged.

There are no chemicals used and each bowl takes ten days to complete. The translucent quality of these beautiful works of art makes them perfect for votive candles as well as a container for potpourri or --- nothing at all - display them just because they are uniquely beautiful! And JUST COOL!
