Are these serveware pieces really handmade?

Absolutely! Each Specialty Serveware item at House Of Avana is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans. Our makers use traditional techniques passed down through generations, ensuring every piece is authentically made, unique, and reflects genuine African craftsmanship.

What materials are used, and are these serveware items safe for serving food?

Our artisan serveware is crafted from premium-quality, sustainably sourced wood and finished with food-safe oils and natural finishes. You can confidently serve food on them—whether it's bread, fruit, or appetizers. We never use harmful chemicals, so beauty goes hand-in-hand with food safety and durability.

How should I care for my handcrafted wood serveware to keep it looking beautiful?

To preserve the richness of your handcrafted African serveware, hand wash gently with mild soap and warm water—never in the dishwasher. Dry thoroughly, and if the wood looks dry over time, simply rub in a little food-safe mineral oil. With gentle care, these pieces will stay stunning and functional for years.

Yes! Our Specialty Serveware collection features elegant, timeless designs that complement both modern and rustic home decor. The natural wood tones and artisanal finishes add warmth and a conversation-starting touch to any table, making them a perfect accent no matter your style.

Is this serveware collection a good gift idea, and does each piece have a story?

Absolutely. Each serveware piece tells a unique story through its craftsmanship and heritage. These make thoughtful, meaningful gifts for weddings, housewarmings, or any special occasion. Recipients appreciate not just a beautiful item, but a one-of-a-kind piece that celebrates African artistry and culture.
