A hexagonal teak bangle named for Yala National Park, in the same district as the workshop.

This hexagonal teak bangle is named for Yala National Park, which sits in the same district as the workshop. It is carved in Beliatta, not in the park, and no timber is taken from the park. From above it reads as a clean hexagon; from the front it softens into a sculptural cuff. Hand-carved facets give it architectural edges while the inside stays rounded for a comfortable fit.

Care

Keep the piece dry. Wipe with a soft cloth after wear. Avoid perfume, lotion, and long submersion. Re-oil once a year with a skin-safe natural oil — jojoba, almond, or a purpose-made wood oil — and the wood will darken into the shape of a wearer. See the size and care guide.
