Hand-carved from a single solid log, the piece showcases the raw, tactile beauty of hand-hewn wood, featuring a deep dugout interior and a distinctively curved handle or yoke. Its organic silhouette and "Wabi-sabi" aesthetic make it an arresting focal point, perfectly suited for a rustic farmhouse kitchen, a minimalist modern interior, or as a textured, soulful accent in a sophisticated coastal home.


Measuring 31.25 inches long, 17.25 inches deep, and 16 inches high, this versatile antique serves beautifully as a unique centerpiece for a grand dining table or as a vessel for dried botanicals. The piece is in excellent antique condition, boasting a rich, sun-bleached patina and natural checks and fissures in the wood that only enhance its historic character. This one-of-a-kind primitive object is a soulful addition to any curated collection of early folk art. See less
