What is the Small Bamboo Chef's Easel?
The Small Bamboo Chef's Easel is what most buyers mean when they ask for a serving bowl that will not look cheap in six months. It measures 7 1/4" x 13 1/2".
Bamboo is a grass, not a hardwood, that is why it regrows in a few years rather than a few decades. The practical reason it is the default choice when a program has a sustainability requirement to satisfy.
A serving piece goes on the table in front of guests, which is a different quality of impression entirely. Laser engraving burns a rich dark-brown mark into the surface. No ink, no coating, nothing to wear off. The two together are why this item re-orders.
Above handout territory. The value here is in choosing recipients deliberately, because the object is good enough that the choosing is part of the message. Concretely: $36.75 each at 1-11, $22.79 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 5.75 in x 10 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Do not spend a week hunting for the perfect file. Send what exists and we will tell you what is usable.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- Nothing is produced before you approve a proof in writing. That is a hard rule, not a courtesy.

|---|---|
| Standard production | 3 to 5 business days after proof approval |

Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Seasonality drives the order pattern. Terraces, patios and outdoor service create demand for a different specification than winter trade does, so most venues need two lists rather than one annual order. A serving piece goes on the table in front of guests, which is a different quality of impression entirely. Too good to scatter. Pick the recipients deliberately.
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. A gift that lands on a client desk and stays there keeps working long after the meeting that prompted it. That argues for fewer, better pieces rather than a large volume of disposables, and for decoration that will still look intentional in two years. Laser engraving burns a rich dark-brown mark into the surface. No ink, no coating, nothing to wear off. Volume takes it to $22.79, which widens the list without cheapening it.
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. The deadline is absolute in a way it is not in any other segment. A wedding does not move, which means production scheduling, not selection, is where these orders fail. Lock artwork six weeks out and the rest is straightforward. The serving bowl format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. The gesture is the product here. Spend the thought, not just the budget.
Real Estate & Closing Gifts
A closing gift is a referral instrument, not a thank-you note. Agents re-order what generates conversations, not what photographs well. Track which pieces prompt a referral call and the item list narrows quickly to two or three things worth stocking properly. At $36.75 before breaks, name the recipients rather than filling a table.

Can I see a proof before you produce the order?

- Ground freight is free from 12 pieces, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
- The personalization area is 5.75 in by 10 in. Engraving is charged on the share your artwork actually covers, so a smaller logo costs less. Place yours on the product above and the price updates as you size it.
- At 50 pieces this costs less than 19% of the 273 other priced items in Home & Kitchen. It sits at the dearer end of that range, which is usually the material rather than the margin.
- The table starts at 12 because below that the engraving setup costs more than the goods, and we will not guess at a price there. Ask us and we will quote a smaller run from your artwork.
- Setup is free at every quantity, including 12.
