File Under: #Zakka, #DomesticObjects, #HandTurned, #Kitchenware

Description

Large wooden bowl turned by hand, with concentric tool marks visible on both the interior and exterior surfaces. The turning rings remain legible beneath a darkened patina developed through prolonged use.

The bowl shows age-related cracking and surface wear consistent with long-term domestic handling. Despite this, it remains structurally sound and fully functional.

Its scale and method of production suggest utility over ornament, produced prior to modern industrial finishing processes.
