Items may arrive in multiple parcels
Pieces already in the UAE may be collected together and leave as one parcel. International partner stock may still travel as separate parcels and arrive on different days.
The fire was on the sand. We wanted a square bowl with a stone rim — heat in the middle, a ledge for the cup.
A square steel bowl with a stone rim. About 70 × 70 × 45 cm. Grey, black, or beige. Wood or charcoal. A lid that sits on the bowl.
Hold.

Light the bowl. Sit at the rim.
