YOU ARE VIEWING FOR AUCTION
Very old wooden bowl.
This is a wonderful piece of hand carved wood work.
Primitive design.
It is a hugh piece and the measurments are below. Due to this being a hand carved piece, the size is not uniformed. This is because it is created from one piece of timber by hand.
It is some kind of food preparation and serving or gathering bowl.
Its a round shape - not a perfect round.....but the way a piece crafted in an traditional way should be.
You can clearly see the individual chisel markings which gives the bowl charm and authenticity.
Orgin : Unknown.
Date: there is some considerable age to the item.
Hard wood- type unknown.
IT IS VERY HEAVY AND SOLID
This piece could be displayed as art in a conservatory or would suit a contemporary modern environment, or used as a centre piece on a large table or side board.
It is an amazing piece ..............................
For an very old piece it is in very good condition. There are some minor imprefections. The handle has some nibbles and there is a fine line crack which looks like it runs along the natural grain - see photos. The item is so solid that this crack does not affect the item.
