The exceptionally large 18th century bowl of natural granite, hand cut and carved, in conical form with a round base. Of warm sandy tone displaying natural stripes and aged patina. Exteriors hand scored with slanting lines, a prehistoric design believed to symbolize the life-giving rain that brings a bountiful harvest.
