The Burl & Bowl identity

Everything needed to represent Burl & Bowl consistently — on the site, at fair booths, on care cards, tags, and social. When in doubt: warm, quiet, wood-first.

The warm brown mark holds up on Walnut. Avoid busy photo backgrounds without a veil.
Logo presentation with bowl mark detail
Bowl mark
The standalone bowl works as an avatar, stamp, or brand on the underside of each piece.
Rules: keep clear space around the mark equal to the bowl's height · don't stretch, recolor, or add effects · minimum height 24px on screen · on photos, place over the dark gradient veil (see homepage hero).

Ratio guide: mostly Curl and Paper, Walnut for text, Heartwood for one primary action per view, Brass and Patina as seasoning — never as large fills together.

Voice

Warm, not precious

Plain words about real wood. "Hand wash, never the dishwasher" — not "artisanal care rituals."

The wood leads

Credit the tree. Describe figure, grain, and origin before technique.

Every piece is numbered and has a record. Say so — provenance is the brand.
