A charming piece of Mid-Century Modern (MCM) home decor, this vintage Couroc of Monterey bowl features the iconic Owl design. The bowl is made from Couroc’s signature satin black phenolic resin, which is incredibly durable and designed to be impervious to hot water, alcohol, and even cigarette burns, making it a perfect piece for entertaining.
The stylized owl perched on a branch is hand-inlaid with stunning detail using natural materials like wood veneer in rich brown and gold tones, along with metallic or mother-of-pearl accents for the eyes and branch.
