Product Information

Full details

This B&Q Molten Glass Goldfish Bowl is designed for individuals seeking unique, handcrafted decorative pieces that highlight natural materials. Its key benefit is its one-of-a-kind aesthetic, where recycled molten glass is fused onto natural wood, creating a flowing, organic form. A potential caveat is that its size (20cm) makes it more suitable for small plants or decorative items rather than actual goldfish.

FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the bowl?

The approximate dimensions are 20cm, referring to its largest width or diameter.

Can I put actual fish in this bowl?

No, this bowl is designed for decorative purposes only and is not suitable for housing fish or other aquatic life due to its size and material composition.

Is the wood treated or sealed?

The wood is a natural material and may have a light sealant, but it is recommended to care for it as natural wood, avoiding excessive moisture.

How is the glass attached to the wood?

The glass is molten and poured directly onto the wood while hot, shaping itself to the wood's contours as it cools.

Will my bowl look exactly like the picture?

No, each bowl is handmade and unique. The molten glass takes on a natural form over the specific wood piece, so expect variations in shape and flow.

What kind of plants are best suited for this bowl?

Air plants are ideal as they require minimal substrate. Small succulents or decorative pebbles can also be used.

Troubleshooting

Wood base appears dry or faded

Lightly buff the wood with a soft cloth. If necessary, apply a small amount of natural wood polish or oil, following the product's instructions, and wipe away any excess.

Glass has smudges or fingerprints

Use a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with water or a mild glass cleaner. Wipe gently and dry with a separate soft cloth.

Bowl feels unstable

Ensure the bowl is placed on a completely flat and level surface. Check that the wood base is not warped or damaged. If instability persists, consider adding felt pads to the underside of the base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

No assembly is required. Simply place the bowl on a stable, flat surface. Ensure the surface is protected from potential scratches from the wood base.

Compatibility:
